Code coverage to 80%

[phlptp]

I would like to set a goal of 80% code coverage for the 2.5 release.
We are likely around 71.5% for the 2.4 release and 100% on the shared_api library, so that is a big improvement.

Ultimately I would like to be at >95% but That will take a long time so this is a shorter term goal.

@nightlark @kdheepak Can you take a look through codecov results and maybe pick out a couple places we should add some coverage, or places that are showing up that wouldn't need to be covered by HELICS tests.

I think we should aim to have complete code coverage in the Python and Julia interfaces first. Maybe that means getting to 100% code coverage in the C interface in the short run.

What kind of automated ways do we have to measure and track the coverage for Julia and Python interfaces? I don't think we are measuring coverage in those interfaces currently.

as of #990 we are at 66.68%

[phlptp]

#1024 increased to 71.49%

[phlptp]

#1082 increased to 72.5% #1088 increased to 73.2%

I think for Python it's harder to do. But for Julia, I'm tracking it here:

At the time of this comment it is between 57% and 59%.
