Description

Lcov has support for branch coverage:

BRDA: branch data: line, block, (expressions,count)+
BRF: branches found

But we do need additional information from compiler mappings for that

Research direction

Start by tracing the lcov output path and how compiler mappings are consumed, then determine what mapping data is needed for the BRDA and BRF records described in the issue. Done means branch coverage statistics can be emitted with the required compiler-mapping information.
