When one does:
make SPHINXDIRS="foo" htmldocs
All patterns would be relative to Documentation/foo, which
causes the include/exclude patterns like:
include_patterns = [
...
f'foo/*.{ext}',
]
to break. This is not what it is expected. Address it by
adding a logic to dynamically adjust the pattern when
SPHINXDIRS is used.
That allows adding parsers for other file types.
