kcov: Add interrupt handling self test

Browse Source 
Add a boot self test that can catch sprious coverage from interrupts.
The coverage callback filters out interrupt code, but only after the
handler updates preempt count. Some code periodically leaks out
of that section and leads to spurious coverage.
Add a best-effort (but simple) test that is likely to catch such bugs.
If the test is enabled on CI systems that use KCOV, they should catch
any issues fast.
