Verified as fixed on the latest Fenix Nightly 114.0a1 from 4/20 with Xiaomi Mi8 Lite (Android 10).

• changing the default search engine triggers the following event:

{
          "timestamp": 2441,
          "category": "events",
          "name": "default_engine_selected",
          "extra": {
            "engine": "Bing"
          }
        }

• adding a new search engine and selecting it as the default one, triggers the following event:

 {
          "timestamp": 34601,
          "category": "events",
          "name": "default_engine_selected",
          "extra": {
            "engine": "custom"
          }
        }
