It looks like using _either_ async Rust with a `JoinSet` _or_
parallelizing a fixed threadpool with Rayon provide about a ~5% speed-up
over our current serial approach:
```console
❯ hyperfine --runs 30 --warmup 5 --prepare "./target/release/puffin venv .venv" \
"./target/release/rayon sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt" \
"./target/release/async sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt" \
"./target/release/main sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt"
Benchmark 1: ./target/release/rayon sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt
Time (mean ± σ): 295.7 ms ± 16.9 ms [User: 28.6 ms, System: 263.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 249.2 ms … 315.9 ms 30 runs
Benchmark 2: ./target/release/async sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt
Time (mean ± σ): 296.2 ms ± 20.2 ms [User: 36.1 ms, System: 340.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 258.0 ms … 359.4 ms 30 runs
Benchmark 3: ./target/release/main sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt
Time (mean ± σ): 306.6 ms ± 19.5 ms [User: 25.3 ms, System: 220.5 ms]
Range (min … max): 269.6 ms … 332.2 ms 30 runs
Summary
'./target/release/rayon sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt' ran
1.00 ± 0.09 times faster than './target/release/async sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt'
1.04 ± 0.09 times faster than './target/release/main sync ./scripts/benchmarks/requirements-large.txt'
```
It's much easier to just parallelize with Rayon and avoid async in the
underlying wheel code, so this PR takes that approach for now.
