Issue ID: 16969
Summary: [backend] add an assemby writer
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86_64
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1

instead of writing byte code, we could have a switch that would have for effect
to output text files filled with a dump of the asm of what would be compiled.
The goal is not to have an intermediate format that can be compiled but rather
to inspect the backend production. Currently with DMD we have to use *objdump*
under linux, *IDA* under windows and other home solutions such as beaengine.
