When enabling code coverage support using in-kernel GCOV, we must first reset coverage "recording" right before starting the test, then ensure we pack and upload the resulting artifacts.
The latter is implemented by POSTing the artifact to the storage server, providing the artifact name and URL as a LAVA test result using the following format:
artifact-upload:<artifact name>:<artifact URL>
This allows the pipeline to add the uploaded artifact(s) to the corresponding node so the information can be easily re-used at a later stage.
The GCOV-specific parts are split into "sub-templates" for easy inclusion in other test templates.
Depends on #2878 & kernelci/kernelci-pipeline#1141
