VSCode debugger's new Symbol.for("debug.description") property for debug descriptions

[justingrant]

VSCode's debugger now has a new way of exposing the string representation of an object inside a debugger, using a new symbol property. I assume we should support this? See microsoft/vscode-js-debug#1775.

Yep - probably the exact same way we support the existing NodeJS symbol:

temporal-polyfill/lib/intrinsicclass.ts

Line 108 in bf2b199

Object.defineProperty(Class.prototype, Symbol.for('nodejs.util.inspect.custom'), {

Though, our current bundles don't include any of this code by default, so I'm wondering how much value all these debug-only things are bringing.

Are there other packages that have a sensible "for debugging" different build / configuration that we could borrow from?
