Description

The non-toolchain code has used -fno-omit-frame-pointer since IMPALA-4132.  The native toolchain code is still compiled without this option which can lead to bad stack traces when there are toolchain calls on the stack.

We should build the toolchain code with -fno-omit-frame-pointer, assuming the performance impact is negligible.  Given that IMPALA-4132 benchmarking found no significant performance impact, it's unlikely we'd see an impact with the toolchain code but we should do a basic benchmark run to confirm.
