Treat distribution/searchplugins as a known location and don't use the full path for the search engine ID's

We've been carrying a distro patch for a long time to do the normalize() in _loadEnginesFromDir(), and I'd like to be able to drop this at some point. Whilst normalize() works for us, it probably wouldn't work in all cases (ie, if the application directory can move around and nobody symlinked the distribution folder to a stable path).

Would you accept something like the attached patch (which basically treats distribution/searchplugins as a known location)?
