Allows any test item to store its result (or PASS/FAIL status when result
is None) into a named global variable, available to subsequent items via
$(variable_name). store_result runs after expected_result but before
no_fail so the real outcome is always captured.

- process.py: stop context_id engines in the inner finally block, before
restore_gd() wipes _py_func_contexts/_lua_func_contexts from the global
dict — engines were previously orphaned after every test run
- py_func/tm.py: add user-facing docstrings to gd/setgd/delgd; remove
internal JSON-serialization details from the docs
- helper_lib.rst: auto-generate global variable helpers from py_func.tm
(the actual subprocess API) instead of globdict
- conf.py: add src/ to Sphinx sys.path so py_func.tm is importable
- py_func_test_item.rst: simplify context sharing section, remove
JSON-serializable/non-serializable distinction for end users
- Regenerated PDF manual

- py_func and lua_func items accept a context_id parameter; items sharing
the same id reuse the same subprocess for the duration of the test run
- Subprocess-side tm.setgd/tm.gd use a local fallback dict for non-JSON-
serializable values (py_func only); serializable values reach the main
process global dict and are accessible from any test item or subprocess
- Shared subprocess engines are cleaned up in process.py finally block
- LuaProcessBase gains is_alive() (was missing, broke all lua_func items)
- Validation tests cover serializable sharing across different context ids,
non-serializable sharing within the same context_id, and cross-item access
- RST documentation updated for both py_func and lua_func items
