Add --print-summary option Add a --print-summary option along the lines
of what gcovr supports and outputting in a compatible format. The number
of functions covered isn't output (it is with gcovr) as this is more
complicated to calculate and it's unclear if it would be useful.

Make cobertura output more concise and add cobertura-pretty output option
Some parsers of cobertura coverage files places limits on the file size
(e.g. GitLab - 10MB), so being as concise as possible is advantageous.
For this reason, change the cobertura output to not add newlines and
indent between XML elements, and add a new output type cobertura-pretty
for cases where the newlines and indent is desired.
Changing the format for the existing cobertura output type rather than
keeping it the same and introducing a new concise output type was opted
for since cobertura is designed to be machine-readable and most of the
time users would not need to inspect the file manually.
This results in a 42% reduction in output file size for a repository of
mine.
Make output of plain lines in cobertura reports more concise For plain
lines (without branch information) then there's no need to write out
opening and closing tags for the line element. It is more concise to
output an empty element, and conciseness is important to avoid hitting
processing limits from certain services that parse the output earlier
than is necessary.
