Fangrui Song 63182c2ac0 [gcov] Add spanning tree optimization
gcov is an "Edge Profiling with Edge Counters" application according to
Optimally Profiling and Tracing Programs (1994).

The minimum number of counters necessary is |E|-(|V|-1). The unmeasured edges
form a spanning tree. Both GCC --coverage and clang -fprofile-generate leverage
this optimization. This patch implements the optimization for clang --coverage.
The produced .gcda files are much smaller now.

Fangrui Song 5809a32e7c [gcov] Add __gcov_dump/__gcov_reset and delete __gcov_flush
GCC r187297 (2012-05) introduced `__gcov_dump` and `__gcov_reset`.
  `__gcov_flush = __gcov_dump + __gcov_reset`

The resolution to https://gcc.gnu.org/PR93623 ("No need to dump gcdas when forking" target GCC 11.0) removed the unuseful and undocumented __gcov_flush.

Close PR38064.
