Introduce a new config symbol EXTRACT_DEBUGINFO to extract debuginfo

The debuginfo of all packages will be extracted from the binary
and copied into "bin/$platform/debuginfo".
This allows better debugging of coredumps by loading the debuginfo
into gdb.

How does this patch help with debugging? Debug info is already staged in
staging_dir/target-*/root-*. This path is used by scripts/remote-gdb,
which also accepts corefiles.
That sounds awesome. Maybe you could elaborate on this either here:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/debugging
or
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/gdb
There's clearly lots of useful stuff there that no-one else knows about.
Cheers,
