"max-workers" as a parameter or a step to check the size of resource class

[livmade]

Describe Request:

Using the install command seems to allow the install-packages command to then allow the CircleCI docker executors tell all the node-related tools that there is a large amount of GB of RAM and dozens of CPUs, stalling out jobs. This causes issues in the restore-cache step.

Supporting Documentation Links:

There's a support article here to add into the config, but it would be helpful to have this built-in instead:
