This avoids GIL limitations with using threads for parallel processing.
In a CrOS checkout with ~1000 repos, the nop case goes from ~6 sec down
to ~4 sec with -j8. Not a big deal, but shows that this actually works
to speed things up unlike the threading model.
This reworks the checkout logic to return results for processing in the
main thread instead of leaving every thread to do its own processing.
