audit: sweep Web Frameworks to the shortlist cap

First Audit of the section; maintainer adjudicated 2026-08-16 at the
preview review, flipping pyramid to keep (enters as Synchronous
Challenger beside fasthtml; the three Obvious slots stay flask, django,
bottle). Both tiers reordered by downloads/month per the ordering rule.

Removed (downloads are PyPI last-30-day via BigQuery, fetched 2026-08-16):

- masonite (26.4K/month): no adoption; Laravel-style niche
- microdot (10.4K/month): MicroPython-targeted, genuinely small audience
- robyn (50.9K/month): installs never followed the buzz
