Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/issues/186

Describe the feature you'd like to see added
Well, it would be wonderful if there's a config file in the repo where Whoogle default Configuration is defined before and can be set before deploying.

Additional context
Like, variables, Country, City, IsDarkModeOn etc. I know there is a Load function for loading the previously saved settings. Still, this also be helpful IMO

If implemented, ideally all settings can also be set via environment variables (for the docker folks)

I've deployed whoogle to a cheap VPS in Hetzner Datacenter in Germany and for some reason the search result are presented in arabic, right-to-left output, when i leave Interface & Search Language at default.

I want to do regular container updates/restarts with docker-compose pull && docker-compose up --detach --force-recreate --remove-orphans and would like to prefer that settings can be made with the start of the application.

All config settings can now be set via environment variables, and/or included in whoogle.env before deployment. Please see the updated documentation for more info.
