Shrinking a member node off of a QQ can be parallelized. The operation involves * removing the node from the QQ's cluster membership (appending a command to the log and committing it) with `ra:remove_member/3` * updating the metadata store to remove the member from the QQ type state with `rabbit_amqqueue:update/2` * deleting the queue data from the node with `ra:force_delete_server/2` if the node can be reached All of these operations are I/O bound. Updating the cluster membership and metadata store involves appending commands to those logs and replicating them. Writing commands to Ra synchronously in serial is fairly slow - sending many commands in parallel is much more efficient. By parallelizing these steps we can write larger chunks of commands to WAL(s). `ra:force_delete_server/2` benefits from parallelizing if the node being shrunk off is no longer reachable, for example in some hardware failures. The underlying `rpc:call/4` will attempt to auto-connect to the node and this can take some time to time out. By parallelizing this, each `rpc:call/4` reuses the same underlying distribution entry and all calls fail together once the connection fails to establish.
