We've noticed that for large builds executing thin-link can take on the
order of 10s of minutes. We are only using a single thread to write the
sharded indices and import files for each input bitcode file. While we
need to ensure the index file produced lists modules in a deterministic
order, that doesn't prevent us from executing the rest of the work in
parallel.
In this change we use a thread pool to execute as much of the backend's
work as possible in parallel. In local testing on a machine with 80
cores, this change makes a thin-link for ~100,000 input files run in ~2
minutes. Without this change it takes upwards of 10 minutes.

Summary:
This implements -thinlto-index-only, -thinlto-index-only:,
and -thinlto-emit-imports-files options in lld-link. They are
analogous to their counterparts in ld.lld: -thinlto-index-only
causes us to perform ThinLTO's thin link and write index files,
but not perform code generation. -thinlto-index-only: does the
same, but also writes a text file listing the native object
files expected to be generated. -thinlto-emit-imports-files
creates a text file next to each index file, listing the files
to import from.
