Feature Request: Integration of Algolia as a Search Engine Option

[FranciscoJBrito]

Problem Description

Currently, the project has Inkeep as its only search engine, which is a paid tool. This can be a barrier for users with limited budgets or smaller projects that need a more accessible solution.

Proposed Solution

Add support for Algolia as an alternative search engine option alongside Inkeep. Algolia offers a free layer, allowing users to access advanced search features without initial costs, which could make the project more accessible to a broader community.

I see that this is a relatively new project, I would like to contribute to it, if you agree I can take charge of this feat.

Hi @FranciscoJBrito , thanks for bringing this up! Yes we definelty would love to support Algolia as a Search Engine Option. And we're glad to accept a plugin for that.

Note that the SearchEngine Plugin interface is not well specced out, so feel free to jump into Discord for discussion or if you have questions!
