Subject: gcov: support GCC 12.1 and newer compilers
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2022 09:40:59 +0200

Starting with GCC 12.1, the created .gcda format can't be read by gcov
tool.  There are 2 significant changes to the .gcda file format that
need to be supported:

a) [gcov: Use system IO buffering]
   (23eb66d1d46a34cb28c4acbdf8a1deb80a7c5a05) changed that all sizes in
   the format are in bytes and not in words (4B)

b) [gcov: make profile merging smarter]
   (72e0c742bd01f8e7e6dcca64042b9ad7e75979de) add a new checksum to the
   file header.

Tested with GCC 7.5, 10.4, 12.2 and the current master.
