Applied a patch by Ingo, to strip the debug info from optional packages.

To note, the reduction of block size from 2048 to 1024 was not applied.
Introduced a new build variable HAIKU_STRIP_DEBUG_FROM_OPTIONAL_PACKAGES,
which will allow users to enable/disable that functionality. In the
alpha-* and nightly-* profiles, it is enabled. Reduced the image size
for alpha-* to 690M. The size for nightly images was left untouched.
