Autotest Parallel Support

I have a commit to add support for the -p (parallel) option to
autotest, which is a feature provided by @grosser’s autotest fork.

The discussion is here:

The commit is here:

Being that this adds a feature only supported by a forked version of
autotest, I wanted to get some feedback as to wether or not this could
even go into rspec-core. If not, then we’ll explore other options.

Thanks!

I’m planning to extract autotest support out of rspec-core into its own
gem when we release rspec-3 later this year, so this might be a good
opportunity to get that started. Would you be interested in being the
maintainer of that gem? If so, we could get it started now with this
addition, and then merge in the other features that are now part of
rspec-core when we release rspec-core-3.

Thoughts?
