When preparing a function's coverage counters and metadata during codegen, any
part of the original coverage graph that was removed by MIR optimizations can
be treated as having an execution count of zero.
Somewhat counter-intuitively, if we give those unreachable nodes a _higher_
priority for receiving physical counters (instead of counter expressions), that
ends up reducing the total number of physical counters needed.
This works because if a node is unreachable, we don't actually create a
physical counter for it. Instead that node gets a fixed zero counter, and any
other node that would have relied on that physical counter in its counter
expression can just ignore that term completely.
When making changes that have a large impact on coverage counter creation, this
makes it easier to see whether the number of physical counters has changed.
(The highest counter ID seen in coverage maps is not necessarily the same as
the number of physical counters actually used by the instrumented code, but
it's the best approximation we can get from looking only at the coverage maps,
and it should be reasonably accurate in most cases.)
