This can be used to remove any stale coverage data before any
particular test run. This is useful for analysing individual tests.

I also see ".gcno" files.
From GCC man page:
-ftest-coverage
Produce a notes file that the gcov code-coverage
utility can use to show program coverage. Each
source file's note file is called auxname.gcno.

I explicitly left that out - the gcno file is regenerated by the build.
There is no reason to wipe it between coverage runs. A full clean should
remove them however.
