Provide .debug_names debug info index for LLDB for clang-built binaries using: clang -gdwarf-5 -gpubnames
Debuginfo index significantly accelerates loading of *.debug files by debugger. Fedora currently provides ELF section .gdb_index for GDB debugger. LLDB debugger cannot use .gdb_index (as it is missing DIE offsets for more effective processing by LLDB) but LLDB can use .debug_names index.
Given Changes/DebugInfoStandardization has been rejected this Change needs to be reworked and it is questionable how it could be implemented. It also probably also no longer needs to be really a Fedora Change. I cannot close this ticket myself.
