Use shorter more Go-like names for the new APIs being added in the
runtime/coverage package for writing coverage data under user control
from server programs. Old names were a bit too clunky/verbose.
Updates #51430.

Add hooks/apis to support writing of coverage counter data and
meta-data under user control (from within an executing "-cover"
binary), so as to provide a way to obtain coverage data from programs
that do not terminate. This patch also adds a hook for clearing the
coverage counter data for a running program, something that can be
helpful when the intent is to capture coverage info from a specific
window of program execution.
