[edk2-devel] [PATCH] OvmfPkg: enable multiprocessor builds when using build.sh

[rebecca at bsdio.com]

When building both BaseTools and OvmfPkg, enable multiprocessor builds,
using up to the number of cores available in the system. This can
drastically reduce build times.
For example, on a modern ThreadRipper system the
time required to build decreases from 3 minutes to 1 minute.
