Multiple archive searcher #230
Description
As highlighted by #229, Searcher's getResults() only yields result's entry path. while convenient for single-archive search, it prevents implementing multi-ZIM search as results would only be path strings from multiple ZIMs.
We should then implement multiple ZIM search properly by
- Binding addArche to Searcher (ref impl in Add searcher add archive #229)
- Change Searcher API so that results can be identified

Hi @rgaudin @benoit74
I noticed that PR #248 has been inactive for several months.....I would be happy to pick this up and submit a clean, working PR that addresses all of @rgaudin 's review feedback
