DESCRIPTION
OVERVIEW: Sanitizer Coverage Processing Tool (sancov)
This tool can extract various coverage-related information from: coverage-instrumented binary
files, raw .sancov files and their symbolized .symcov version. Depending on chosen action the
tool expects different input files:
-print-coverage-pcs - coverage-instrumented binary files
-print-coverage - .sancov files
<other actions>
- .sancov files & corresponding binary files, .symcov files
