doc,test: fix concurrency option of test() by tniessen · Pull Request #47734 · nodejs/node

@tniessen

The documentation appears to still be wrong w.r.t. the meaning of the
concurrency option of the test() function. The implementation appears to
default to Infinity when the option is set to true. Is that intended or
a good idea? I don't know. It certainly makes more sense than what the
documentation says (which is basing the number of concurrent tasks
within a single thread on the number of CPU cores).

This changes the documentation to hopefully match the implementation and
adds a test that rules out the (rather arbitrary) behavior described in
the documentation.
