06cccc3921 perf: build external cmake deps in parallel
All checks were successful
CI / build-test-release (pull_request) Successful in 9m0s
cmake --build was invoked with no --parallel, so the default Unix
Makefiles generator compiled external deps (DPP, msquic, glslang, …)
one translation unit at a time, leaving all but one core idle.

Pass an explicit --parallel N using hardware_concurrency() so dep
builds use the available cores. An explicit count (not a bare
--parallel) avoids an unbounded make -j fork bomb on the Makefiles
generator.
