SrtSystemInfo is not thread-aware, but can safely be handed off from one thread to another, and caches its results internally; so we can use a thread per architecture, plus an extra thread for cross-architecture Vulkan and EGL ICDs, to enumerate graphics drivers and populate the cache in parallel with any other container setup. We join the threads just before looking at their results, to maximize the length of time for which we're running in parallel. On slow hardware (Lenovo T520 circa 2011, with 500G 7200rpm HDD) this cuts something like 20% off the setup time with a cold cache (`echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches`). It also has a benefit (more like 15%) with a warm cache, immediately after a previous pressure-vessel run. This does make it somewhat harder to profile pressure-vessel, because when two I/O-bound operations run in parallel, they both take longer than they otherwise would, even though the overall task finishes sooner; this makes it hard to attribute I/O cost to particular actions. The new --single-thread option can be used to get a better idea of where the time is really going. Signed-off-by:
