compileopts: silently succeed when there's no debug info to strip

Before, on the baremetal target or MacOS, we errored if the user
provided configuration to strip debug info.

Ex.
```bash
$ $ tinygo build -o main.go  -scheduler=none --no-debug  main.go
error: cannot remove debug information: MacOS doesn't store debug info in the executable by default
```

This is a poor experience which results in having OS-specific CLI
behavior. Silently succeeding is good keeping with the Linux philosophy
and less distracting than logging the same without failing.
