Depend on parallel, doc improvements

By depending on parallel instead of importing it, functions to set up
and stop a cluster are always available when mkin is loaded.

The use of multicore processing in mmkin on Windows is now documented in
the help file, which brings mkin closer to a version 1.0 #9.

 <li><p>Add the possibility to fit indeterminate order rate equation (IORE) models using an analytical solution (parent only) or a numeric solution. Paths from IORE compounds to metabolites are supported when using formation fractions (use_of_ff = ‘max’). Note that the numerical solution (method.ode = ‘deSolve’) of the IORE differential equations sometimes fails due to numerical problems.</p></li>
 <li><p>Switch to using the Port algorithm (using a model/trust region approach) per default. While needing more iterations than the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm previously used per default, it is less sensitive to starting parameters.</p></li>
