Add cobertura report format for force:apex:test:report command

[tprouvot]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. On gitlab CI/CD if you want to visualize code coverage , you have to provide a cobertura report

What are you trying to do Visualize code coverage on gitlab CI/CD or Azure DevOps

Describe the solution you'd like It would be great if we could choose cobertura format in command force:apex:test:report ie: sfdx force:apex:test:report -i <test run id> -r cobertura

Describe alternatives you've considered Develop a sfdx plugin to convert existing report output (human, junit or json) into cobertura format

Additional context I tried to use this plugin but never managed to install it.

I'd really appreciate this for the Azure DevOps project I'm on! For reference I found the Cobertura DTD, along with an example. The formats supports more than we get back from SFDX, for instance also coverage per method/branch/conditional is supported. Snippet below.

    </packages>
</coverage>

I think we can skip everything in <methods> because it's simply not there. As for <line>, is there a way to calculate ?hits? If not, we can just live with 1. For branch we should just put false because we'll never get branched coverage.

Hi guys !

Looks like the new sfdx version (7.153.0) is about to make our wish come true !
