hook: parse the hook.jobs config
The hook.jobs config is a global way to set hook parallelization for all hooks, in the sense that it is not per-event nor per-hook. Finer-grained configs will be added in later commits which can override it, for e.g. via a per-event type job options. Next commits will also add to this item's documentation. Parse hook.jobs config key in hook_config_lookup_all() and store its value in hook_all_config_cb.jobs, then transfer it into r->jobs after the config pass completes. This is mostly plumbing and the cached value is not yet used. Signed-off-by: Adrian Ratiu <adrian.ratiu@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
