[cbuildgen] Disable incremental link in debug config (#2219)

brondani · web-flow · commit 44f4974b20e8 · 2025-09-26T12:28:56.000+02:00
With the new GH Runner Image for windows-2022 [20250921.44.1](https://github.com/actions/runner-images/releases/tag/win22%2F20250921.44) the build of cbuildgen integration tests started to fail with an [internal linker error](https://github.com/Open-CMSIS-Pack/devtools/actions/runs/17992831402/job/51210581443): ``` LINK : fatal error LNK1000: unknown error at 00007FF745A8B899; consult documentation for technical support options ``` Proposed workaround: disable incremental linking because it tends to get flaky on large graphs.
