I've approved your access as an admin.

Note, you got the model of work wrong here.  There is no 'they' that
will do the scanning for us.  There is only 'me' who run a
instrumentation build using the tools provided by coverity and uploading
the resulting package to coverity for analysis.

I booted the old virtual machine I used for such tasks in the past, and
tried to do such build today, and it seemed to upload just fine, but
apparently have not been accepted for scanning.  No idea what went
wrong, and no time to investigate.
