Previously our precompilation code was causing anything with package A as a dependency to wait on all of A's extensions and weakdeps to finish before starting to pre-compile, even if it can't actually load those weakdeps (or the extensions themselves)

This would lead to a pre-compile ordering like:

A        B
 \      / \
  Ext AB   \
     |     /
     C    /
      \  /
       D

Here C cannot pre-compile in parallel with Ext {A,B} and B, because it has to wait for Ext {A,B} to finish pre-compiling. That happens even though C has no way to load either of these.

This change updates the pre-compile ordering to be more parallel, reflecting the true place where Ext {A,B} can be loaded:

  A       B
 / \     / \
C   Ext AB  |
 \    |    /
  \-- D --/

which allows C to compile in parallel with B and Ext{A,B}

Please review 55b40ed (that's the only commit w/ important changes)

Previously our precompilation code was causing any dependencies of a
package A to wait on all of A's weakdeps to finish pre-compiling,
even if it can't actually load those weakdeps (or the extension itself)

This would lead to a pre-compile ordering like:
```
A        B
 \      / \
  Ext AB   \
     |     /
     C    /
      \  /
       D
```

Here, extension `C` cannot pre-compile in parallel with `Ext {A,B}` and
`B`, because it has to wait for `Ext {A,B}` to finish pre-compiling.
That happens even though `C` has no way to load either of these.

This change updates the pre-compile ordering to be more parallel,
reflecting the true place where `Ext {A,B}` can be loaded:
```
  A       B
 / \     / \
C   Ext AB  |
 \    |    /
  \-- D --/
```

which allows `C` to compile in parallel with `B` and `Ext{A,B}`
