In case threads are available (post 26.1) use a different thread to
download and install docsets.

Things that should be taken into account:

  • Contention of multiple threads trying to download (use a mutex)
  • How can we kill a thread that has been blocked for unknown reasons? (if the mutex is still locked we end in a dead-end)
