Previously this recipe was changed to do debug builds because otherwise insane
warns that the binary is already stripped.

However, debug builds for boost.build also pass -O0.  It turns out that given
how large Boost is (or, how bad boost.build is) doing a release build with -O3
knocks a third off the walltime for a Boost package in my test, mainly by 
reducing
how long it spends deciding that nothing needs to be rebuilt in do_install:

  PKG      TASK        ABSDIFF  RELDIFF  WALLTIME1 -> WALLTIME2
  boost    do_install  -330.7s   -69.2%     477.6s -> 146.9s
  boost    do_compile    -7.1s    -2.7%     269.3s -> 262.2s

Replace debug mode with INSANE_SKIP=already-stripped.

-Subject: [PATCH] Build debug version of bjam
-
-bjam is stripped by default, this causes QA warning while stripping it
-from do_populate_sysroot():
-
-  WARNING: File '.../tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/bjam' \
-    from bjam-native was already stripped, \
-    this will prevent future debugging!
-
-The JAM scripts allow to build unstripped version with '--debug'. Just
-build and install the bjam.debug to stop bjam from being stripped in
-compile step.
