Description
We have export as DWARF but not export as PDB
There already exists a plugin written by @trumank https://github.com/trumank/binja_pdbgen/ but nothing shipped with product.
We also might switch to MS pdb crate https://github.com/microsoft/pdb-rs so we want to try and do that together to not duplicate work, https://github.com/Vector35/binaryninja-api/issues/6746

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing DWARF export and the referenced binja_pdbgen plugin, then compare the proposed approach with Microsoft's pdb-rs and issue 6746. The work is done when PDB export is integrated into the shipped product without duplicating the parallel effort.
