Description
The 1.0 (or 1.1) compiler emitted the compilation flags into the source map. We added this for hypothetical tooling scenarios, where browser tools could trigger a simple recompilation of a file discovered by a source map, in the case where it was live edited.
This is not a high priority as those scenarios aren't currently planned, but perhaps it would be a simple port of work already done.

Research direction
Start by locating the current source-map generation path and compare it with the 1.0 or 1.1 compiler implementation referenced in the issue. Done means the compilation flags are emitted into the source map as they were previously, with appropriate coverage for the restored behavior.
