Description
The tools support splitting debug info from the binaries. Not sure if we need build system support for this, or if it's just flags for the user. At the very least we should document how to use it.

Research direction
Start with the GCC DebugFission page and the related CMake issue 21179 linked in the report. Determine whether split-DWARF needs NDK build-system support or only user flags, then document the supported usage and its build implications.
