Remove parallel unpacking
Parallel unpacking didn't really improve the speed that much. Actually sorting the files for optimized unpack order improved speed much more than the parallel unpacker. Furthermore, the fork based parallel unpacker was actually pretty messy to begin with. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

The following options are specific to unpacking files from a SquashFS image
to disk:

-\fB\-\-jobs\fR, \fB\-j\fR <count>
-Specify a number of parallel jobs to spawn for unpacking file data.
-The file hierarchy is created sequentially but the data unpacking is
-distributed over the given number of jobs so that each job has to unpack
-roughly the same amount of data. This can be used to speed up unpacking
-of large SquashFS archives.
-.TP
\fB\-\-no\-sparse\fR, \fB\-Z\fR
Do not create sparse files. Always unpack sparse files by
writing blocks of zeros to disk.
