Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Tags wiki page and confirming whether libzim handles the private Kiwix tags. Then inspect how this scraper currently defines or emits tags, including the proposed python-scraperlib location. Done means supporting the relevant tags without omissions or spelling inconsistencies.

Description

enhancement question

See https://wiki.openzim.org/wiki/Tags

I believed these were handled at libzim level, but it does not seem to be the case

@rgaudin do you confirm? If so, we might add support for all these tags in python-scraperlib to avoid forgetting or misspelling one or the other.
