gcc: prevent runtime references via __FILE__ but in a reversible manner

the mangling done by mangle-NIX_STORE-in-__FILE__.patch also applies to
source paths embedded in debug symbols. When putting a breakpoint in a
template instanciation from another lib, the path that gdb looks for is
therefore mangled (/nix/store/eeeeeee;...-the-lib-dev/include/foo.h)
This severely degrades the debugging experience. To alleviate that, it's
possible to make the mangling reversible: a debuginfod server can then
reverse the mangling. I plan to implement that in nixseparatedebuginfod.
The reversible mangling that was chosen in making the hash of the store
path uppercase.
