multiprocessing.eclass: Default makeopts_jobs to inf=nproc+1

Change the default value for 'inf' argument to makeopts_jobs from 999
to $(get_nproc) + 1.  This means that if MAKEOPTS specifies a `-j`
argument without a specific value, nproc will be used rather than
infinity-ish number of jobs.

The old default made sense for ebuilds using both makeopts_jobs
and makeopts_loadavg.  However, these are very rare — only 4 packages
and 3 eclass at this time.  For the remaining ebuilds, they meant
uncontrollably using up to 999 jobs.

The new default is both safer and more correct for the vast majority
of Gentoo packages, removing the necessity of repeating:

    $(makeopts_jobs "${MAKEOPTS}" "$(get_nproc)")

The ebuilds and eclasses using makeopts_loadavg have been updated
to pass the old default.

 # Searches the arguments (defaults to ${MAKEOPTS}) and extracts the jobs number

-# no way to represent infinity, we return ${inf} (defaults to 999) if the user
-# has -j without a number.
