[PATCH v2] meson: Pass -j option to sphinx

[Fabiano Rosas <farosas@suse.de>]

Save a bit of build time by passing the number of jobs option to
sphinx.

We cannot use the -j option from make because meson does not support
setting build time parameters for custom targets. Use nproc instead or
the equivalent sphinx option "-j auto", if that is available.

Also make sure our plugins support parallelism and report it properly
to sphinx. Particularly, implement the merge_domaindata method in
DBusDomain that is used to merge in data from other subprocesses.

before:
  $ time make man html
  ...
  [1/2] Generating docs/QEMU manual with a custom command
  [2/2] Generating docs/QEMU man pages with a custom command

  real    0m43.157s
  user    0m42.642s
  sys     0m0.576s

after:
  $ time make man html
  ...
  [1/2] Generating docs/QEMU manual with a custom command
  [2/2] Generating docs/QEMU man pages with a custom command

  real    0m25.014s
  user    0m51.288s
  sys     0m2.085s
