root-debug: remove it everywhere
Separate debug files in .debug/ directories in root/ have been available
for some time. This is supported by all modern toolchains and much less
confusing.
Remove all references to root-debug except for cleaning: This way there
won't be old root-debug/ directories lying around after upgrading and
running 'ptxdist clean' or 'ptxdist clean root'.
