Fix backpack typechecking with -j

Motivation

Currently, backpack typechecking is not supported with -j as seen here.

Proposal

Enable backpack typechecking with -j, addressing whatever attendant issues caused this initial restriction. @ezyang expressed willingness to help out at least at a mentor level.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
