Subject: [PATCH v2] kbuild: add debug package to pacman PKGBUILD

Add a new debug package to the PKGBUILD for the pacman-pkg target. The
debug package includes the non-stripped vmlinux file, providing access
to debug symbols needed for kernel debugging and profiling. The vmlinux
file will be installed to /usr/src/debug/${pkgbase}. The debug package
will be built by default and can be excluded by overriding PACMAN_EXTRAPACKAGES.

v1->v2:
- Use the new PACMAN_EXTRAPACKAGES [1] variable to allow users to disable the
debug package if desired, instead of always including it.
