Description:

Is it possible to remove DEBUG_INFO from the config? Looks like it is not used for the package anyway, and can increase the package size dramatically if custom packaging commands are used. Also, looks like it's not an option a regular user would want. If removed via the menu, it produces the following change in the config file:

```
-CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
-# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED is not set
-# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED is not set
-# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT is not set
-CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4=y
-CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y
-# CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS is not set
+# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is not set
```
This task depends upon
