[oe] BitBake parallel parsing testing

[Chris Larson]

Greetings all,
This is a request for further testers for the parallel parsing branch
of bitbake, as well as for review of the code.  I'm fairly certain
that the last real issue with it was resolved yesterday, and I haven't
gotten any reports of problems from those testing it since last week,
so I'm opening it up to more public testing, so we can be absolutely
certain that we can merge it to master in the near future without
risking problems.

For code review:
Either follow the below steps, then git log master..parallel-parsing
or git diff master..parallel-parsing, or use the web interface at
https://github.com/kergoth/bitbake/commits/parallel-parsing.

For testing from scratch:

git clone git://github.com/kergoth/bitbake
cd bitbake
git checkout -b parallel-parsing origin/parallel-parsing

>From an existing bitbake repository:

git remote add kergoth git://github.com/kergoth/bitbake
git remote update
git checkout -b parallel-parsing kergoth/parallel-parsing

Thanks for your time, and do let me know what you think, either of the
code, performance in general, or the new progress bar (shows an ETA),
or anything else :)
