ci: add non-required Codecov coverage job, config, and badge

Add an additive coverage job to CI that generates lcov via cargo llvm-cov
and uploads to Codecov (tokenless). Mirrors the test job's pinned 1.94
toolchain and dual freemkv-unlock checkout for the path dep. Informational
only: no gate depends on it. Adds codecov.yml and a README badge.

+  # it. Mirrors the `test` job's layout exactly — same pinned 1.94 toolchain,
+  # same dual checkout so the `../freemkv-unlock` path dep resolves, same cache
+  # workspace and working-directory. cargo-llvm-cov comes as a prebuilt binary
+  # from taiki-e/install-action, so it is toolchain-independent.
+  #
+  # No `--locked`: like the fmt/clippy/test jobs above, this crate's Cargo.lock
+  # is gitignored, so there is nothing to lock against on a fresh runner.
