Brad King 78b00f1d10 Help: Clarify ctest_* APPEND option behavior
Explicitly state that this marks the `.xml` to tell the dashboard
server to append it to previously submitted results and that it
does not cause results to be appended to the `.xml` file.

ctest_coverage
--------------
Perform the :ref:`CTest Coverage Step` as a :ref:`Dashboard Client`.
::
ctest_coverage([BUILD <build-dir>] [APPEND]
[LABELS <label>...]
[RETURN_VALUE <result-var>]
[CAPTURE_CMAKE_ERROR <result-var]
[QUIET]
)
Collect coverage tool results and stores them in ``Coverage.xml``
for submission with the :command:`ctest_submit` command.
The options are:
``BUILD <build-dir>``
Specify the top-level build directory. If not given, the
:variable:`CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY` variable is used.
``APPEND``
Mark ``Coverage.xml`` for append to results previously submitted to a
dashboard server since the last :command:`ctest_start` call.
Append semantics are defined by the dashboard server in use.
This does *not* cause results to be appended to a ``.xml`` file
produced by a previous call to this command.
``LABELS``
Filter the coverage report to include only source files labeled
with at least one of the labels specified.
``RETURN_VALUE <result-var>``
Store in the ``<result-var>`` variable ``0`` if coverage tools
ran without error and non-zero otherwise.
``CAPTURE_CMAKE_ERROR <result-var>``
Store in the ``<result-var>`` variable -1 if there are any errors running
the command and prevent ctest from returning non-zero if an error occurs.
``QUIET``
Suppress any CTest-specific non-error output that would have been
printed to the console otherwise. The summary indicating how many
lines of code were covered is unaffected by this option.
