 Remote GHCi: parallelise BCO serialization

 Summary:
 Serialization of BCOs is slow, but we can parallelise it when using
 ghci -j<n>.  It parallelises nicely, saving multiple seconds off the
 link time in a large example I have.

 Test Plan:
 * validate
 * `ghci -fexternal-interpreter` in `nofib/real/anna`
