    Reduce *blooper* of CPUs during conversion

    If dbpa isn't going to try to do this automatically, to deal with the situations when multi-CPU conversion degrades into a random disk I/O benchmark, please add a button to the conversion progress dialog that will allow me to dynamically reduce the number of threads. Right now, I have to remember to set it up as a "DSP action" before beginning a conversion, and if I forget to do this, all I can do is abort. Recovering from that means going into the folders, deleting partially converted files, re-adding just the ones that were not converted, and setting the DSP action to use just a single CPU. This, of course, is pessimistic to leave as a default, because some conversions do benefit from multiple CPU usage, so I have to go back into the DSP action and undo it. Should be easier.
