6fb063ad06 Rename interface for querying physical hardware concurrency
Based on post-commit review for D25585/r284180, rename
hardware_physical_concurrency to heavyweight_hardware_concurrency,
to better reflect what type of tasks it should be used for and
to enable other systems to map this to something other than the
number of physical cores.

0a9d04f218 Add interface for querying physical hardware concurrency
Summary:
This will be used by ThinLTO to set the amount of backend
parallelism, which performs better when restricted to the number
of physical cores (on X86 at least, where getHostNumPhysicalCores is
currently defined). If not available this falls back to
thread::hardware_concurrency.

Note I didn't add to the thread class since that is a typedef to
std::thread where available.
