bitbake/cooker/codeparser: Ensure the code parser cache is saved for each parsing process

Before this change, the codeparser cache was only being saved for the main
server process. This is suboptimal as it leaves code being re-evaluated at
task execution time and increases parse time.

We use the multiprocess Finalize() functionality to ensure each process
saves out its cache. We need to update the cache save function to be multiprocess
friendly with locking.
