pythongh-89792: Limit test_tools freeze test build parallelism based …

…on the number of cores (python#101841)

unhardcode freeze test build parallelism. base it on the number of cpus, don't use more than max(2, os.cpu_count()/3).

+during the ``freeze`` test by ignoring git metadata and other artifacts.  It
+also limits its python build parallelism based on os.cpu_count instead of hard
+coding it as 8 cores.
