I find codecov useful, but I almost always turn that comment off, as you
can see here:
https://github.com/pganssle/zoneinfo/blob/1bdc68b447fa84faf41cb86d7816ab06fa7a73c1/codecov.yml#L2

I think it defaults to on and has a way of occasionally failing in such
a way that it fires anyway, but this is very occasional in my experience.

I think we should definitely turn it off - the little github webhooks
are enough to give you the information you want, and I find it very spammy.
