Implement Parallel Downloading Feature in Drifty

[coderabbitai]

Summary

Implement a feature in Drifty to enable parallel downloading of multiple files simultaneously.

Motivation

Currently, Drifty downloads files sequentially, which can be time-consuming when downloading multiple files. Implementing parallel downloading of multiple files will significantly improve download speeds and efficiency.

Benefits

• Increased Download Speed: Ability to download multiple files at the same time.
• Better Resource Utilization: Utilizes system and network resources more effectively.
• Improved User Experience: Users can download large batches of files more quickly.

Proposed Solution

Modify the application to support initiating multiple downloads in parallel. Implement a download manager that can handle multiple download threads, each downloading a different file from the queue. Ensure that thread safety measures are implemented in classes involved in the download process, such as ProgressBarThread, to handle concurrent operations safely.
