Dont use workers for swc & esbuild minify

Modification Proposal
SWC and ESBuild minify both run off-thread though native bindings. We don't need to create workers to parallelize workloads for them, unlike terser or uglify-js which block the event loop if not run on separate worker. This should have performance improvement for people who have many output chunk files. I will try this out later and add some numbers to verify.
Expected Behavior / Situation
We simply use promise concurrenctly instead of workers to parallelize.
Actual Behavior / Situation
Workers are created regardless of minification implementation.

@ronakj Can you provide profiling? Because we use parallelization to compress multiple files and avoid memory problems with real big files
