<pre>
    For some reason the codegen::RegisterCodeGenFlags fails to execute, whenever I try ./amanlang --filetype=obj it gives me:

```
❯ ./amanlang --filetype=obj                                                         
Begin before
amanlang: Unknown command line argument '--filetype=obj'.  Try: './amanlang --help'
amanlang: Did you mean '--emitir=obj'?
```

What is weird is that inspecting the localy built llvm, you see the lines in CommandLine.cpp where it registeres all the options. If I manually just copy paste the `static cl::opt<CodeGenFileType> FileType`, it seems to work fine, but still weird how using codegen::RegisterCodeGenFlags with static storage doesn't do the job.
