Parallel sweep and ICU dependencies rebuild

Vlad Khorsun

Tracker tickets: #7447, #7550

A new command-line switch has been added to gfix: -PAR[ALLEL] <N>.

It defines how many parallel workers will be used for the requested task.

Usage example:

gfix -sweep -par 4 -user <username> -pass <password> <dbname>
gfix -icu -par 4 -user <username> -pass <password> <dbname>

The -parallel option is only valid in combination with the -sweep and -icu tasks.
