Currently:

NO_COVERAGE: Set to a non-empty string to suppress gathering coverage.

For people who already know what this means, I think this is probably clear enough. But for people who don't... such as me, I think this could be clearer.

Does it stop the profiling package from collecting coverage data on the GAP side of the package? Does it also stop the package's kernel module from having code coverage collected? If this variable is set, does gap-actions/process-coverage stop working, or at least redundant?

This issue was inspired by my confusion in gap-packages/profiling#94
