* gnu/packages/algebra.scm (reduce)[parallel-build?]: New field.

Parallel make seems to be broken for this package. See
https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/9182618/log/raw
https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/9180049/log/raw
https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/9186909/log/raw

For example, below we see that make tries to rename the same file
(.deps/scs_private.Tpo) twice:
--------- begin https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/9182618/log/raw -----------
mv -f .deps/scs_private.Tpo .deps/scs_private.Po
cp /tmp/guix-build-reduce-2024-08-12.drv-0/Reduce-svn6860-src/csl/cslbase/fonts/*.ttf reduce.fonts

mv: cannot stat '.deps/scs_private.Tpo': No such file or directory

When this package is built via 'guix build -c n' with n < 3 these errors
do not arise.

Ah, it worked without problem on my 2 core machine :)

Thanks for the quick patch, I have just applied it and pushed.
