Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the node processes large amounts of Kinect sensor data serially. Each image is produced in series, then followed by the point cloud. On powerful machines, this could be done in a multi-threaded way to speed up image generation.

Describe the solution you'd like
Provide an option to multi-thread the node so that images can be produced faster.

Describe alternatives you've considered
This could also be done by spawning many nodelets, but it could be expensive to serialize the K4A capture object so that it could be passed to various nodelets.
