43206239a8 tests: Add script checking for deterministic line coverage (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Add script checking for deterministic line coverage in unit tests.
Context: #14343 ("coverage reports non-deterministic")
When the coverage is deterministic this script can be invoked from Travis to guard against regressions, but left inactive for now.
Output in case of determinism:
```
$ contrib/test_deterministic_coverage.sh 2
[2019-01-30 20:08:46] Measuring coverage, run #1 of 2
[2019-01-30 20:10:45] Measuring coverage, run #2 of 2
Coverage test passed: Deterministic coverage across 2 runs.
```
Output in case of non-determinism:
```
$ contrib/test_deterministic_coverage.sh 2
[2019-01-30 20:08:46] Measuring coverage, run #1 of 2
[2019-01-30 20:10:45] Measuring coverage, run #2 of 2
The line coverage is non-deterministic between runs.
The test suite must be deterministic in the sense that the set of lines executed at least
once must be identical between runs. This is a neccessary condition for meaningful coverage
measuring.
