Introduce a "log level" support for DEBUG_TYPE (#150855)

This allows to set an optional integer level for a given debug type. The
string format is `type[:level]`, and the integer is interpreted as such:

- if not provided: all debugging for this debug type is enabled.
- if >0: all debug that is < to the level is enabled.
- if 0: same as for >0 but also does not disable the other debug-types,
it acts as a negative filter.

The LDBG() macro is updated to accept an optional log level to
illustrate the feature. Here is the expected behavior:

LDBG() << "A"; // Identical to LDBG(1) << "A";
LDBG(2) << "B";

With `--debug-only=some_type`: we'll see A and B in the output.  
With `--debug-only=some_type:1`: we'll see A but not B in the output. 
With `--debug-only=some_type:2`: we'll see A and B in the output. (same
with any level above 2)
With `--debug-only=some_type:0`: we'll see neither A nor B in the
output, but we'll see any other logging for other debug types.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch
