Disable debug info for Nix builds

For example, this slims down the airflow-operator image from 615MiB to
147MiB.

This improvement is a combination of the size of the debuginfo
itself (~200MiB per binary), and not having to include build
dependencies just because our debuginfo refers to them (primarily, this
ended up pulling in GCC, which sits at ~260MiB just on its own).
