update.nix: Run update scripts in parallel

To make updating large attribute sets faster, the update scripts
are now run in parallel.

Please note the following changes in semantics:

- The string passed to updateScript needs to be a path to an executable file.
- The updateScript can also be a list: the tail elements will then be passed
  to the head as command line arguments.
