cmd/cover: add hybrid instrumentation mode
Add a new mode of coverage instrumentation that works as a hybrid
between purely tool-based and purely compiler-based. The cmd/cover
tool still does source-to-source rewriting, but it also generates
information to be used by the compiler to do things like marking
meta-data vars as read-only.
In hybrid mode, the cmd/cover tool is invoked not on a single source
file but on all the files in a package, and is passed a config file
containing the import path of the package in question, along with
other parameters needed for the run. It writes a series of modified
files and an output config file to be passed to the compiler when
compiling the modified files.
Not completely useful by itself, still needs a corresponding set of
changes in the Go command and in the compiler.
Updates #51430.
