    Use /debug:fastlink linker option to improve link performance
    
    /debug:fastlink improve build performance and reduce resources
    consumption. When this linker oprion is used the linker-produced
    program database (PDB) files doesn’t have any private symbol
    information. Debug information is distributed among input object
    and library files, and the linker PDB just serves as an indexing
    database. Obviously, this provides a huge performance benefit for
    the daily developer builds.
    
    fastlink PDB files cannot be shared with another developer on the
    team or uploaded directly to symbol server. There is spcial tooling
    which is able to create a full PDB from the /debug:fastlink PDB
    on demand: mspdbcmf: [1]. The integration of mspdbcmf is beyond
    the scope of this change.
