[llvm-dev] A new code coverage bot

[Vedant Kumar via llvm-dev]

This is happening because RewriteStatepointsForGC.cpp.o isn't linked into
clang, causing its coverage mapping data to be discarded. Maggie (CC'd) is
working on a patch that should allow llvm-cov to produce a combined report
given multiple binaries.

For now, I've configured the bots to produce separate reports for opt and llc
(adding to the reports we have for clang, lld, and polly). The next time it
updates, you should be able to see coverage for this file in the report for
opt.

I'll send out a link once it's ready.
