searchRipgrep.enable and search.runInExtensionHost are no longer
used. A code search for searchRipgrep and runInExtensionHost shows
no matches.

While they were originally used to determine if searches should be run
with ripgrep, they were later replaced with search.useRipgrep. That
setting itself is now deprecated and does the same thing as
search.usePCRE2 (so it actually doesn't disable ripgrep), but at least
it does something.

So delete these settings that are beyond deprecation - they do nothing.

Thanks. I think search.runInExtensionHost might be disconnected on accident. It's not really useful for users but I might want it for testing in the future. Will have to dig into the history.

Yeah I might bring it back later but don't have any reason to do that now so I'll merge this, thanks.
