Processing the gcda/gcno files take too long using the lcov tool. Make it faster please!

Specifically, here is the call from a python program.

> proc = Popen(['lcov', '--capture', '--directory', directory_path, '--output-file', '-'], stdout=PIPE, stderr=fdevnull)
With https://github.com/marco-c/grcov (https://github.com/klahnakoski/ActiveData-ETL/pull/13) we should be parsing those files much faster than before.

Mitch's work on the gcno/gcdo parser, that can be plugged-in in https://github.com/marco-c/grcov, might make it even faster.
This is done.  Thanks marco!
