CI: improve gcov handling #10404

- Move __gcov_flush to process_spawn, for more reliable coverage
  tracking of subprocesses
- Travis: use GCOV_ERROR_FILE
- codecov: use "-X fix" to skip "fixing" uploaded coverage data; it
  should be handled by codecov's backend instead.
- AppVeyor: no $PATH mangling, which breaks with the improved coverage tracking
  due to missing .dll in PATH.
