AppImage works by decompressing the "program" in a temporary directory.
So the executable path is not the path of the AppImage file.
By using the environment variables set by appimage we can find the correct
"path" of the executable.

Android need to handle the redirection by doing a redirection in the web
view, not by providing the content of the targeted article.
This is already what we do in kiwix-serve or ios.
The API should be far better by returning a Entry but for now,
we just change the given url if the article is a redirection.
The server will be running some code on the behalf of the calling code.
We really don't what to crash the library (and the binary) because
of a wrong request.
This code is mainly copied from kiwix-tools.
But :
- Move all the response thing in a new class Response.
- This Response class is responsible to handle all the MHD_response
configuration. This way the server handle a global object and do
no call to MHD_response*
- Server uses a lot more the templating system with mustache.
There are still few regex operations (because we need to
change a content already existing).
- By default, the server serves the content using the id as name.
- Server creates a new Searcher per request. This way, we don't have
to protect the search for multi-thread and we can do several search
in the same time.
- search results are not cached, this will allow future improvement in the
search algorithm.
- the home page is not cached.
- Few more verbose information (number of request served, time spend to
respond to a request).
TOOD:
- Readd interface selection.
- Do Android wrapper.
- Remove KiwixServer (who use a external process).

Instead of having a single method `listBooksIds` that tries to be
exhaustive about all the filter and sort option, split the method in
two separated methods `filter` and `sort`.
The `filter` method takes a `Filter` object that represent on what we are
filtering. This object has to be construct before calling `filter`.
```cpp
Filter filter;
filter.query("Astring");
filter.acceptTags({"nopic"});
// return all book in eng and with "Astring" in the tile or description".
library.filter(filter);
//equivalent to
library.listBooksIds(ALL, UNSORTED, "Astring", "", "", "", {"nopic"});
// or better
library.filter(Filter().query("Astring").acceptTags({"nopic"}));
```
The method `listBooksIds` has been marked as deprecated.
Add a small test on the library.
The `exit` function will call the functions registered.
Qt may (and does) register function and may (and does) hangup waiting
for some mutex to be free.
Here we are in a forked process and we want to process to exit without
doing any cleanup (because we are a clone of a process that will continue
and we don't want to mess it).
