The debug mode has been broken pretty much ever since it was shipped
because it was possible to enable the debug mode in user code without
actually enabling it in the dylib, leading to ODR violations that
caused various kinds of failures.
This commit makes the debug mode a knob that is configured when
building the library and which can't be changed afterwards. This is
less flexible for users, however it will actually work as intended
and it will allow us, in the future, to add various kinds of checks
that do not assume the same ABI as the normal library. Furthermore,
this will make the debug mode more robust, which means that vendors
might be more tempted to support it properly, which hasn't been the
case with the current debug mode.
This patch shouldn't break any user code, except folks who are building
against a library that doesn't have the debug mode enabled and who try
to enable the debug mode in their code. Such users will get a compile-time
error explaining that this configuration isn't supported anymore.
In the future, we should further increase the granularity of the debug
mode checks so that we can cherry-pick which checks to enable, like we
do for unspecified behavior randomization.

Prior to this patch, there was no distinction between tests that check
basic assertions and tests that check full-fledged iterator debugging
assertions. Both were disabled when support for the debug mode is not
provided in the dylib, which is stronger than it needs to be.
Furthermore, all of the tests using "debug_macros.h" that contain more
than one assertion in them were broken -- any code after the first
assertion would never be executed.
This patch refactors all of our assertion-related tests to:
1. Be enabled whenever they can, i.e. basic assertions tests are run
even when the debug mode is disabled.
2. Use the superior `check_assertion.h` (previously `debug_mode_helper.h`)
instead of `debug_macros.h`, which allows multiple assertions in the
same program.
3. Coalesce some tests into the same file to make them more readable.
4. Use consistent naming for test files -- no more db{1,2,3,...,10} tests.
This is a large but mostly mechanical patch.

At this point, every supported compiler that claims a -std=c++17 mode
should also support `if constexpr`. This was an issue for GCC 5
and GCC 6, but hasn't been an issue since GCC 7. (Our current
minimum supported GCC version, IIUC, is GCC 10 or 11.)

While this adds some convenience to the test suite, it prevents the tests
using these checkpoints from being used on systems where signals are not
available, such as some embedded systems. It will also prevent these tests
from being constexpr-friendly once e.g. std::map is made constexpr, due
to the use of statics.
Instead, one can always use a debugger to figure out exactly where a
test is failing when that isn't clear from the log output without
checkpoints.
We used <iostream> in several places where we don't actually need the
full power of <iostream>, and where using basic `std::printf` is enough.
This is better, since `std::printf` can be supported on systems that don't
have a notion of locales, while <iostream> can't.
