Binaries are (almost) always built with debug symbols, there's nothing that
needs to be done there. The unstripped debug binaries are typically
packaged into "<recipename>-dbg" package, while stripped versions of those
binaries go into other packages. To get debug binaries onto an image, you
can either add the specific -dbg packages with IMAGE_INSTALL_append or add
all debug packages with image features:
    EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += "tools-debug dbg-pkgs"
