Support parallel installation on Windows

Currently, cpm does not install modules in parallel on Windows.
This is because Windows does not have real fork(2), so I intentionally disable parallel installation on Windows.

On the other hand, we may launch new worker processes by system 1 on Windows, and let them communicate with the main process via TCP/IP.

This will be challenging, but it's worth a try, I think.
