perf: do thin LTO and singular `codegen-unit` on release
Fixes #224 .
Description
Optimize release builds without impacting compile times. The alternatives include:
- Full/Fat LTO
- More codegen-units With single codegen-unit we make the compilation a bit slow, but that is much better tradeoff when compiling for releases given the optimizations that can be gained. Similarly, Fat LTO didn't give much of a gain from binary size perspective, have to figure out if there were any gains in terms of memory locality, but that is a harder question to answer, thus chose to go with Thin LTO.
This PR has:
- [ ] been tested to ensure log ingestion and log query works.
- [ ] added comments explaining the "why" and the intent of the code wherever would not be obvious for an unfamiliar reader.
- [ ] added documentation for new or modified features or behaviors.
