Tools, tests, and experimenting with MIR-derived coverage counters
Leverages the new mir_dump output file in HTML+CSS (from #76074) to visualize coverage code regions
and the MIR features that they came from (including overlapping spans).
See example below.
The `run-make-fulldeps/instrument-coverage` test has been refactored to maximize test coverage and reduce code duplication. The new tests support testing with and without `-Clink-dead-code`, so Rust coverage can be tested on MSVC (which, currently, only works with `link-dead-code` _disabled_).
New tests validate coverage region generation and coverage reports with multiple counters per function. Starting with a simple `if-else` branch tests, coverage tests for each additional syntax type can be added by simply dropping in a new Rust sample program.
Includes a basic, MIR-block-based implementation of coverage injection,
available via `-Zexperimental-coverage`. This implementation has known
flaws and omissions, but is simple enough to validate the new tools and
tests.
The existing `-Zinstrument-coverage` option currently enables
function-level coverage only, which at least appears to generate
accurate coverage reports at that level.
Experimental coverage is not accurate at this time. When branch coverage
works as intended, the `-Zexperimental-coverage` option should be
removed.
This PR replaces the bulk of PR #75828, with the remaining parts of
that PR distributed among other separate and indentpent PRs.
This PR depends on two of those other PRs: #76002, #76003 and #76074
