…ension builds Parallel builds of extensions that share source files may write to the same object file paths under a common build directory, resulting in race conditions and non-deterministic build outputs. Use a per-extension subdirectory within build_temp to isolate object files and ensure deterministic, parallel-safe builds.

Tests
I tested this change downstream at Gentoo after encountering https://bugs.gentoo.org/967476 and https://bugs.gentoo.org/945376 (packages https://pypi.org/project/librt and https://pypi.org/project/pymongo/). Since the build failures are encountered non-determinstically, i compiled both librt and pymongo as often as needed, capping the compilation attempts to 100.
