Parallel test execution

Sander Rijnrequested to merge
parallel-tests into main

Description

I was starting to get annoyed at some of the tests taking quite some time while others were much faster, so I looked into parallelizing them.

This MR adds support for parallel test execution:

  • list pytest-xdist as developer dependency
  • marked tests depending on MUSCLE3 with a separate group to prevent database access collisions
  • include parallel execution section in README.dev
  • include parallel execution in CI job and in the local pre-commit script
