I recently tried meson+gcovr and wasn't very happy with the default
merging/filtering of the source and build trees. So I just copy-pasted
the gcovr invocation that meson does and tweaked it to work
correctly... annoying, but less annoying than lcov. (I still need lcov
for differential coverage, though, as far as I can tell.)
