Originally added in #52887 this commit disables passing `--strip-debug` to LLD
when optimized. This bring back the original bug of emitting broken debuginfo
but currently it *also* strips the `name` section which makes it very difficult
to inspect the final binary. A real fix is happening at
https://reviews.llvm.org/D50729 and we can reevaluate once we've updated LLD to
have that commit.
The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR,
and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code
that runs towards the end of the compilation process.
For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc guide.
