Description

Currently we have a process-wide concurrency limit (defaults to 128) in addition to the per-scan concurrency limit. Now that we have object store caching (so we reuse the same object store instance) and we have scenarios with multiple buckets we should change it so there is one single concurrency limit which is enforced at the object store level. Then we can pull the concurrency limits out of the scan scheduler.
