      The documentation for the parallel pipeline step is excessively brief. This pull request addresses that by documenting:

      • What the criteria for failure and success are
      • The (lack of) meaning of the closure return value
      • Why some failures are "silent" in that they report no exception (hudson.AbortException)
      • How to get results out of the branches if desired
      • "Failed in branch" message
      • A short practical example
      • The return value of the parallel step, and why it should be ignored per JENKINS-26033
