[FEATURE]: Customize how fast amethyst queries the AUR

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Amethyst is slow to query the aur for upgrades and waits for version information before continuing.

Describe the solution you'd like

By being able to make multiple requests at a time this could cut down the time it takes to perform AUR upgrades. Make this a variable so that the user can specify how intensely they want to query the AUR to compare versions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Wait.

let rpc_result = rpcinfo((&*pkg.name).to_string());

This is actually planned to be addressed soon, as our current plans with Amethyst is to:

  • Polish out the current feature set, then
  • Implement async RPC and searching/querying for Amethyst v4.0.0

We will most likely have it be a sane default, e.g. 4 concurrent queries, but we may make it configurable too as we've just implemented a .config/ame/config.toml file in v3.6.0 (PR #19)

You can query package info for multiple packages at once in one request so we don't actually need to start several concurrent requests.
It's already implemented in the wrapper crate.
