    gschema: Add note about adding country-specific search engines
    
    Since translating the search engines names allow translating the entire
    GVariant text, it's possible to add search engines on the translation
    level. So let's allow and encourage that, for when that makes sense.

generally

+                                       You are allowed to add search engines here, *if they make sense*. 
Please
+                                       don't add your favorite search engine just because you like it though,
+                                       only do it for search engines that are already widely used in this 
specific country.
+                                       Obvious cases where it makes sense are for example adding Yandex for

please
+                                       make sure that you're not making mistakes in the GVariant text (e.g.
+                                       missing ', <, > or trailing comma), and that you're keeping the %s
+                                       placeholder for the search query. Also please check if they are 
actually
+                                       properly shown in the Preferences if you reset the gsettings key. -->
