add parallel execution as test_par.py:

[emirkmo]

Adding parallelization (simple way for now). Tested and improves speed pretty linearly with cores on the machine.

Adds a simple test_par.py script that you can run, similar to run_photometry.py, that allows parallelization, will use number of cores specified, or the max available, whichever is lesser. In the background we're currently just calling run_photometry.py in parallel executions because I don't really know how to handle the logging in parallel in the same script yet. But this works for now and we can implement it into run_photometry.py or improve it in the future if desired.
