    src-release.sh: Use -T0 for xz compression
    
    Use parallel compression to create the xz archive.
    
    On my machine (using 4 cores) this reduces the time to create
    binutils-2.42.50.tar.xz from 1 minute 40 seconds to 56 seconds.
    
    xz has supported -T0 since version 5.2.0 (released 2014-12-21).
