-----------------------------+----------------------
 We're having trouble with Cobertura, and we noticed that we're not really
 using it that much: One issue is an `UnsupportedClassVersionError`
 (#31233), another issue is a CI fail due to line coverage rate of 91.6%
 being below 92.0% on the CI host which doesn't show on my dev machine.

 Without having hard evidence, I suspect that these issues are in one way
 or another related to Cobertura not being maintained anymore with its last
 release being from February 2015.

 Let's remove Cobertura from our build process. We can later switch to
 using something else that GitLab can actually interpret the output of.

 I didn't work on these changes yet, but I think this mainly requires
 changes to metrics-base and a subsequent update in all depending code
 bases. I'll work on this later today or tomorrow.
