I decided to make it an opt-out feature as most of the test case will use some debug info and this way you don't have to specify it explicitly (mutating a test what don't have any debug info only have performance hit because it will run the same test multiple times).

About mutating, my current plan is to mutate every test isn't marked as no_debug_info_test and mark the test with dwarf_test / dsym_test / dwo_test annotations. The purpose of these annotation would be to enable the debug info based test filtering (e.g. the already existing "-N dwarf" option) and it should also test if the current system (compiler, OS) supports the given debug info format and skip the test if necessary (the dsym_test annotation already skip the test on non-darwin systems).

Other option is to generate the mutated tests only on platforms where they are supported. It have the advantage of removing a huge number of skipped tests and reducing the noise with it, but it also makes it more difficult to compare platforms (and possibly mask away some basic coding errors). I don't have a strong opinion about the two options so if somebody have preferences then let me know.
