Subject: kbuild: add debug level and macro defs options
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2022 04:33:17 +0300

Add config options to control debug info level and producing of macro
definitions for GCC/Clang.

Option DEBUG_INFO_LEVEL is responsible for controlling debug info level. 
Before GCC 11 and Clang 12 -gsplit-dwarf implicitly uses -g2.  To provide
a way to override the setting with, e.g.  -g1, DEBUG_INFO_LEVEL is set
independently from DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT.

Option DEBUG_MACRO_DEFINITIONS is responsible for controlling inclusion of
macro definitions.  Since Clang uses -fdebug-macro to control if macro
definitions are produced which is different from GCC, provides a
compiler-specific way of handling macro inclusion.  The option is handled
after DEBUG_INFO_LEVEL since -g3 -g2 implies -g2, but -g2 -g3 implies -g3
and GCC uses -g3 to produce macro definitions.
