PS1, Line 14: This patch enables MT_DOP query option to accelerate 'show 
tables/databases'
Let's not overload mt_dop. mt_dop should only be about query execution, not 
metadata loading.

On a side node, I'm not sure whether a query option is the right place to 
control this. For other metadata operations we use fixed-size thread pools for 
the most part. The problem with having parallelism per-operation is that you 
don't have any control over the amount of load induced on the underlying 
metadata systems. There's also nothing to stop end-users from setting it to an 
absurd value.

Anyway, I'll let reviewers figure out what would be best there, my main point 
was please don't use mt_dop for this, we want to reserve that for the backend.
