fix(@angular/build): use Node.js available parallelism for default wo…

…rker count

The Node.js `os.availableParallelism` API now provides more accurate values
when used within containers such as many CI environments. This provides a
better default when using resource limited CI setups. The value is still
set to a maximum default of four. However, the `NG_BUILD_MAX_WORKERS`
environment variable can be used to set the value to an explicit value
if required.
