fix(@angular-devkit/build-angular): limit concurrent output file writes with application builder

When using localization with the application builder for a large amount of locales, the number
of files that may need to be written to disk can become large. This may be problematic on certain
operating systems depending on the open file process limits. To avoid approaching the limit, the
number of concurrent writes is now limited to 64.
