Description
We currently emit debug info into the output spv "binary". Rust has an option to split it out into different files(https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/profiles.html#split-debuginfo). We should read that option and support putting the debug info in a different file from the artifact.

Research direction
Start with Rust's Cargo profile documentation for split-debuginfo, then trace where rust-gpu emits debug information into the output SPV binary. The issue names no source files, entry points, or tests; done means the option is read and debug information is written separately from the SPV artifact.
