Refresh of parallel iterators primer

[reviewed by @e-kayrakli]

This PR does a few things with the parallel iterators primer:

makes some minor style and documentation tweaks to the computeChunk() utility routine as a follow on to issue #16890 that felt too nitpicky to bother with during the review process
takes a full pass over the full parIters primer while here, to define standalone parallel iterators before leader-follower iterators (because they’re simpler to understand and arguably a more common case to want to support).

Resolves #6343.
