std: add std.options.debug_stacktrace_kind

[nektro]

given the following test file we can run it with the various option values.

const std = @import("std");

pub const std_options = std.Options{
    .debug_stacktrace_kind = .full,
};

pub fn main() !void {
    foo();
}

fn foo() void {
    bar();
}

fn bar() void {
    qux();
}

fn qux() void {
    lorem();
}

fn lorem() void {
    ipsum();
}

fn ipsum() void {
    @panic("oops!");
}

beyond stylistic desires, the various options also have performance and binary size ramifications. .none exits faster not having to inspect the program's debug info and results in a smaller file. however since this does not require the file to be stripped to get the effect, using an external debugger remains totally possible.

a version that prints out stack addresses without needing any debug info (so no file, line, or symbol name info) could be useful too

[nektro]

afaik that's already what happens if you use .full and strip. it will print out the addresses with the line info replaced with ????

[Khitiara]

if you strip debug info then dumpStackTrace prints out a warning and returns early, and writeStackTrace returns error.MissingDebugInfo, though printSourceAtAddress does work for what you describe
