Issue body
Several of the plugins contained within Snapcraft (autotools, make, CMake) have the potential to run much faster than they do by enabling parallel builds. Currently Snapcraft doesn't take advantage of this, and it should. Ideally it should be automatic-- detect that the CPU is capable of parallel builds (and how many, perhaps via `multiprocessing.cpu_count()`) and enable it, all transparent to the user.
