ci: make all main make steps parallel and sync output (#7162)

Changes:

* Use `scan-build make` instead of running `scan-build` inside of `make`
  (this appears to be necessary for the output synchronization to work)
* Use `-j "$(nproc)"` and `-Orecurse` for the main `make` step in all
  jobs (including where this step is currently not parallel)

The main drawback of using parallel make (`-j`) is that the output of
different jobs may be printed interspersed, which makes the output
harder to read and less stable across multiple executions.

Example:

    job1: line1
    job1: line2
    job2: line1
    job3: line1
    job1: line3

Using `-Orecurse` should fix this by ensuring that the output of all
jobs is still printed sequentially in the order that the jobs were
executed (that is, as if `-j` was not used), even if the jobs themselves
are executed in parallel.

This should ensure that the main `make` step in each job runs its
targets in parallel and has a stable output at the same time, making it
easier to compare the logs of the same job across different CI runs.

Note: The `-O` flag is specific to GNU make and was added in version 4.0
(2013-10-09).
