LLVM-based toolchain is using a different set of tools for coverage. Add an example that produces output in lcov format.

This looks good to me, minus a couple of very, very minor typos, and the fact that this whole section could probably do with some tidying up. We'll deal with that separately, though.
UML folks: do you want to take this via the UML branch (alongside patch 1), or should we take one or both of them via KUnit? (Or, this could go via the docs tree, too, I suppose.) There shouldn't be any merge conflicts on our side.

I'm not a big fan of the --kunitconfig=.kunit/ bit here, but since we're doing it in the gcc version above, let's leave it for now for consistency.
Also, Nit: two '$' starting the line.
