Generation of Symbolic Debugging Information "-d2"

Issues
======
- special stuff to skip over thunks?

Sequencing
==========
- D2 debugging information
  - traverse type structure
  - traverse symbol table
- Dwarf information
- code generation

For D2 debugging information
============================

A. Traverse type structure in two stages:
    1. All the fundamental types, map multiple flavours of base type to a
       common dbug_type
    2. All the typedef entries. (this will catch all the named types)

B. Traverse the symbol table, emitting information for interesting entries
    - what makes a symbol interesting?
	a. flags & (SF_INITIALIZED|SF_REFERENCED)
	b. ???

C. Support emission of type information on 'as needed' basis while generating
    other types and symbols.
