MDEV-26102 followup

* update README
* fix version regex to support versions with two digits
* die if the version cannot be parsed
* support gcc versions 11+
* require JSON::PP not use, to avoid introducing new rpm dependency
  into MariaDB-test

@@ -2,14 +2,7 @@ To be able to see the level of coverage with the current test suite,
 do the following:
 
   - Make sure gcov is installed
-  - Compile the MySQL distribution with BUILD/compile-pentium64-gcov (if your
-    machine does not have a pentium CPU, hack this script, or just live with
-	the pentium-specific stuff)
-  - In the mysql-test directory, run this command: ./mysql-test-run -gcov
-  - To see the level of coverage for a given source file:
-     grep -1 source_file_name ../mysql-test-gcov.msg
-  - To see which lines are not yet covered, look at source_file_name.gcov in
-    the source tree.  You can find this by doing something like:
-    find source-directory -name "mysqld.cc.gcov"
-    Then think hard about a test case that will cover those lines, and write
-    one!
+  - Compile the MariaDB distribution with -DENABLE_GCOV=1
+  - In the mysql-test directory, run this command: `./mysql-test-run --gcov`
+  - see var/last_changes.dgcov for the coverage of uncommitted code
+  - see `./dgcov -h` for more options
