Attribute set of search engine configurations. Engines that only have metaData specified will be treated as builtin to Firefox.
See SearchEngine.jsm in Firefox's source for available options. We maintain a mapping to let you specify all options in the referenced link without underscores, but it may fall out of date with future options.
Note, icon is also a special option added by Home Manager to make it convenient to specify absolute icon paths.
