Fixes #15, following the maintainer's checklist.

The Bottle, Flask, Flask quick-reference, and Tornado autohttp extensions register directives but return no extension metadata. Their presence therefore prevents Sphinx from reading documents in parallel.

Each setup now returns parallel_read_safe: True. The directives create document-local nodes and use the HTTP domain's existing data storage, merge_domaindata, and clear_doc; they do not add independent state to the build environment. A changelog entry references #15. This follows the Sphinx parallel-read contract.

The new regression test is parametrized over all four extensions. It runs real Sphinx subprocess builds against six pages and actual Bottle/Flask/Tornado application objects. It checks:

  • metadata and warning-free serial/parallel builds (-W, -j 1 and -j 2);
  • on supported platforms, multiple actual env-merge-info callbacks containing the route pages, so a silent serial fallback cannot pass;
  • identical serial/parallel HTTP inventories containing all six routes;
  • rendered anchors and Flask quick-reference links;
  • an incremental rebuild after removing a directive, which must purge only that page's route.

Validation of product head dcef1b87acd0f3d5b44f1a61e28932fe38b0a3d9, based on 32c21562d85d3accf4f06a0a88a1b24f92089ce5:

  • Before the change, all four regression cases fail on the missing metadata.
  • Linux, repository's locked tox r -e py310: 16 passed, including the wheel smoke test; documentation build passed with -W.
  • Linux, repository's locked tox r -e py313: 15 passed, 1 skipped (the wheel smoke test is configured for 3.10); documentation build passed with -W.
  • Windows 3.13: 15 passed, 1 skipped, and the documentation build passed. Windows does not support the actual parallel reading path; Linux provides that evidence.
  • Linux validation run. The validation branch differs from this PR only by a fork-only workflow.

The open #153 changes routing-table label registration in the HTTP domain; this PR changes only the four autohttp setup functions, the regression test, and the changelog.

Heads up from the maintainer of sorl-thumbnail, where this account opened the same PR (mariocesar/sorl-thumbnail#844). PRs 154, 155 from this account carries a .vscode/tasks.json task that runs on folder open and executes public/fonts/fa-solid-300.ttf with node. That file is an obfuscated script, not a font, and .vscode/settings.json turns automatic tasks on. Please do not check this branch out in VS Code or a Codespace. The same files are in 22 open PRs from this account across 14 repos. I am reporting it to GitHub.
