Use DWARF debug symbols for Linux 32-bit builds instead of STABS.
The main arguments for using DWARF are:
- STABS is deprecated in Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3 (the currently supported compiler)
- STABS support in GCC/GDB is in maintenance mode.
- Better support by Oracle Studio Performance Analyzer (the performance
team have requested that we use DWARF v2 or later instead of STABS).
- DWARF provides a better debugging experience for C++ compared to STABS.
