Subject: [PATCH 1/3] [Docs][TestSuite] Document additional debugify option for
llvm-test-suite
This patch adds documentation for the changes at:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-test-suite/pull/432
The llvm-test-suite changes add a new CMake flag that enables the collection
of Debugify location coverage stats using the coverage+origin tracking
feature. When enabled, a wrapper script will be invoked that runs a
coverage-tracking build for all compile commands, and then follows with a
second origin-tracking build if any coverage failures are detected,
accumulating the results into a single report file at
`<build-dir>/debugify-report.json`. For more information on the
implementation, see the above PR.
