Remove the Editor Plugins and IDEs section — modern editors handle Python
via LSP natively, making a curated list of editor plugins less useful.
Consolidate the standalone RPC Servers section into a subsection under
Web Servers to reflect that grpcio and rpyc are network server libraries,
not a separate category.

Update the 'Also see' link from the old absolute GitHub URL pointing
to #restful-api to the current relative anchor #web-apis, matching
the section rename in a previous refactor.

Restructures the top-level ToC groups for better logical cohesion:
- Split 'Web & API' into 'Web' (frameworks, servers, CMS) and
'HTTP & Scraping' (clients, scraping, URL, email)
- Move 'Database & Storage' earlier in the ToC, before 'Data & Science'
- Merge 'Web Content Extraction' and 'Web Crawling' into a single
'Web Scraping' section
- Rename 'Content & Media' to 'Text & Documents' and 'Media' (split)
- Rename 'System & Runtime' to 'Python Language' and 'Python Toolchain'
- Rename 'Security & Auth' to 'Security'; move Authentication to Web group
- Rename 'Development Tools' to 'Developer Tools', 'DevOps & Infrastructure' to 'DevOps'
- Reorder sections within groups to reflect learning progression
(e.g., Deep Learning before Machine Learning in AI & ML)
- Move Hardware and Microsoft Windows to Miscellaneous group
- Add s3cmd to DevOps and youtube-dl to Command-line Tools
- Update CONTRIBUTING.md example group names to match new labels

The website builder previously relied on a hardcoded SECTION_GROUPS list in
build.py to organize categories into thematic groups. This was fragile: any
rename or addition to README.md required a matching code change.
Replace this with a parser-driven approach:
- readme_parser.py now detects bold-only paragraphs (**Group Name**) as
group boundary markers and groups H2 categories beneath them into
ParsedGroup structs.
- build.py drops SECTION_GROUPS entirely; group_categories() now just
passes parsed groups through and appends the Resources group.
- sort.py is removed as it relied on the old flat section model.
- Tests updated throughout to reflect the new (groups, resources) return
shape and to cover the new grouping logic.

Group the Table of Contents entries under bold section headers (AI & ML,
Web & API, Data & Science, etc.) so the README is easier to navigate at
a glance. Update CONTRIBUTING.md to reflect that new sections should be
placed under the appropriate thematic group instead of in a flat list.

Group flat lists into labeled subcategories to improve scannability and navigation.
Also remove entries that don't meet curation standards and fix the toga repo URL.

Entries appearing in more than one category were previously emitted as
separate rows. They are now deduplicated in build.py by URL, collecting
all category and group names into lists.
The template encodes those lists as pipe-delimited data attributes
(data-cats, data-groups) and renders a tag button per category.
The JS filter is updated to split on '||' and check for membership,
so clicking any category tag correctly shows the merged row.

Add active-state press feedback (scale transform) to buttons, filter clear,
and tags. Add moz-osx-font-smoothing for consistent antialiasing on Firefox/Mac.
Apply text-wrap: balance to headings and text-wrap: pretty to body text and
expanded row descriptions. Add text-underline-offset to links and highlight
active table rows with bg-hover.

- Relocate group tag from expand row to category column so it appears inline beside the category tag
- Add margin between stacked tags with .col-cat .tag + .tag spacing rule
- Remove fixed width from .col-cat; narrow .col-name from 35% to 30% to give category column room
- Hide .tag-group on screens ≤900px and widen .col-name to 50% to reclaim space

Switch table-layout back to auto on mobile to let columns size naturally,
add uniform cell padding overrides, shrink num/arrow columns further,

column to avoid awkward right-aligned single digits.

Prefer PyPI package name as display name so developers can copy it
directly to pip install. Fall back to GitHub repo name if not on PyPI.
Also update examples to use lowercase PyPI names.
