Description
### Description of the feature request:
Whenever I run coverage I get a massive log that's largely
```
File '/foo/bar.h'
Lines executed0.00% of 3
File '/foo/baz.h'
No executable lines
File '/foo/qux.h'
Lines executed0.00% of 3
```
Would it be possible to disable these by default or at least provide a flag to reduce nose?
### What underlying problem are you trying to solve with this feature?
I would like to maintain the readability of my logs while using coverage builds.
### Which operating system are you running Bazel on?
Linux
### What is the output of `bazel info release`?
release 5.2.0
### If `bazel info release` returns `development version` or `(@non-git)`, tell us how you built Bazel.

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by tracing the coverage invocation that emits the File, Lines executed, and No executable lines records, then identify where its verbosity is configured. Done should mean coverage builds provide the requested quieter default or explicit control without obscuring useful results; verify the behavior on Linux with Bazel 5.2.0.
