[scraperhelper] Allow scraper controller to be configured to run scrapers in parallel

[dehaansa]

Description

When investigating an issue in contrib, it was discovered that the scraperhelper did not have a way to run scrapers in parallel and take advantage of the connection pool in the sqlqueryreceiver. This PR adds the ability to configure the scrapercontroller to run either unbounded goroutines to scrape in parallel or a configurable size worker pool for running scrapers in parallel.

Link to tracking issue

Fixes #13113

Testing

Unit tests updated, but otherwise untested, posting here for initial review while I evaluate in context in contrib.

Documentation

No docs updated, as there's no existing docs for the package.

Hi! I'm currently working with the sqlqueryreceiver and very interested in testing this new parallel scraping feature — especially the worker pool mode. I can validate behavior and performance improvements when multiple queries are involved and connection pooling is in place.

Let me know if there’s anything specific I should focus on during testing, or if you'd prefer feedback via issue or PR comments. Thanks for the great work!

👋 I've had to juggle some other priorities (and was on PTO for a bit) - any testing or feedback would be welcome, I can't give this my full attention at the moment.
