Subject: [PATCH] kunit: tool: Default --jobs to number of CPUs

The --jobs parameter for kunit_tool currently defaults to 8 CPUs,
regardless of the number available. For systems with significantly more
(or less), this is not as efficient. Instead, default --jobs to the
number of CPUs present in the system: while there are as many
superstitions as to exactly what the ideal jobs:CPU ratio is, this seems
sufficiently sensible to me.
