OvmfPkg: Disable debugging for UNIXGCC to save space
UNIXGCC builds larger images than GCC44, and can have issues
fitting into the FD image. Therefore, when using UNIXGCC,
debug will be disabled by default.
The README file is updated with instructions for selectively
enabling debug for UNIXGCC.

+=== UNIXGCC Debug ===
+
+If you build with the UNIXGCC toolchain, then debugging will be disabled
+due to larger image sizes being produced by the UNIXGCC toolchain. The
+first choice recommendation is to use GCC44 or newer instead.
+
+If you must use UNIXGCC, then you can override the build options for
+particular libraries and modules in the .dsc to re-enable debugging
+selectively. For example:
+ [Components]
+ OvmfPkg/Library/PlatformBdsLib/PlatformBdsLib.inf {
+ <BuildOptions>
+ GCC:*_*_*_CC_FLAGS = -UMDEPKG_NDEBUG
+ }
+ IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Universal/BdsDxe/BdsDxe.inf {
+ <BuildOptions>
+ GCC:*_*_*_CC_FLAGS = -UMDEPKG_NDEBUG
+ }
