coverage: Consistently remove unused counter IDs from expressions/mappings

If some coverage counters were removed by MIR optimizations, we need to take care not to refer to those counter IDs in coverage mappings, and instead replace them with a constant zero value. If we don't, `llvm-cov` might see a too-large counter ID and silently discard the entire function from its coverage reports.

Fixes #117012.

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
