Change the default value for 'inf' argument to makeopts_jobs from 999
to $(get_nproc) + 1. This means that if MAKEOPTS specifies a `-j`
argument without a specific value, nproc will be used rather than
infinity-ish number of jobs.

The old default made sense for ebuilds using both makeopts_jobs
and makeopts_loadavg. However, these are very rare — only 4 packages
and 3 eclass at this time. For the remaining ebuilds, they meant uncontrollably using up to 999 jobs.

The new default is both safer and more correct for the vast majority
of Gentoo packages, removing the necessity of repeating:

$(makeopts_jobs "${MAKEOPTS}" "$(get_nproc)")

The ebuilds and eclasses using makeopts_loadavg have been updated
to pass the old default.

Changes in v2:
- changed the default to nproc+1 as suggested by Flow, thanks!

# @FUNCTION: makeopts_jobs
-# @USAGE: [${MAKEOPTS}] [${inf:-999}]
+# @USAGE: [${MAKEOPTS}] [${inf:-$(( $(get_nproc) + 1 ))}]
# @DESCRIPTION:
# Searches the arguments (defaults to ${MAKEOPTS}) and extracts the jobs number
# specified therein. Useful for running non-make tools in parallel too.
# i.e. if the user has MAKEOPTS=-j9, this will echo "9" -- we can't return the
# number as bash normalizes it to [0, 255]. If the flags haven't specified a -# -j flag, then "1" is shown as that is the default
