There is a way to significantly shrink our binaries if we remove stray targets and strip extra symbols.

aslushnikov added a commit that referenced this issue Jan 31, 2020
The `--strip-unneeded` removes all symbols needed for library
compilation as part of a `.a` static library.
([source](https://www.technovelty.org/linux/stripping-shared-libraries.html))

So these are safe to remove and they should keep our binary
debuggable. These should save us ~100Mb unzipped.

Shaved off 25% from WebKit Linux builds while keeping webkit crashes sufficiently debuggable.
