QEMU RISC-V hangs (qemu hang-up) when using fw_jump.elf as the
default BIOS while kernel debugging is enabled. This has been
observed with the 6.18 kernel (exact version where it was
introduced is not known).

As a workaround, switch to fw_dynamic.elf when KERNEL_DEBUG is
enabled, which avoids the hang and works correctly with debug
builds. The default behaviour is unchanged and continues to use
fw_jump.elf when KERNEL_DEBUG is not set.
