classic dwarfdump on macOS used to have a similar functionality under the name of

```
--file-stats[=size]
        Show file composition statistics for any input files. Each file's
        contents are analyzed and broken down into byte counts for the
        following categories: symbol table, string table, text and code,
        DWARF debug information, STABS debug information, and other. When
        multiple files are specified, byte count totals for each category
        will be displayed at the end of the table.  Specify the optional
        'size' argument to show all byte count results using unit suffixes:
        Byte, Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte, Terabyte and Petabyte. This
        option can be useful in tracking the size and makeup of mach-o
        binary files, and also allows easy comparison between DWARF and
        STABS built binaries and related object files.
```

that we never ported to llvm-dwarfdump. We *could* reimplement the same interface for familiarity, but I don't have a particularly strong opinion about it.
