Issue ID: 22493
Summary: DWARF: Use flag DW_FORM for flag attributes to reduce
binary size
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: dmd

DW_FORM_data1 is being used on every debug info entry, which adds 1 byte, even
if the entry doesn't have that flag.
With DWARF5, flags can be enabled on the abbreviation code, reducing the debug
info entry size and therefore the overall size significantly.
