Unfortunately the docs are a bit outdated there. It's impossible to
really see how often a line has been executed as each line might have
multiple execution statements on them.

However, you can use code coverage to detect which code can be executed,
and which code can't be executed. Use the XDEBUG_CC_UNUSED |
XDEBUG_CC_DEAD_CODE flags to xdebug_start_code_coverage() to enabled
that.
