TL;DR: GitLab keeps an unstripped copy of the release binary (amd64 and arm64) for each main commit, as a 90-day artifact. The shipped layer does not change.

Why: The shipped binary is stripped, so we cannot see what takes space in it or profile it. With symbols we can attribute binary size per crate and read cold-start profiles. #1480 compares each pipeline's binary with this main baseline.

Overview

Jira: SVLS-9976

First PR of the dev-tooling stack. It does not depend on the CI stack.

Add the job bottlecap symbols (<flavor>) for the flavors with keep_symbols: true (amd64
and arm64). It compiles the release profile again with KEEP_SYMBOLS=1
(CARGO_PROFILE_RELEASE_STRIP=false) and keeps, for 90 days, under the artifact name
bottlecap-<suffix>-<short sha>:

• the shipped stripped binary from bottlecap (<flavor>),
• the same compile with the symbol table,
• a build-info file (commit, ref, pipeline and job URLs).

It runs on main and on tags, and is manual on other branches. Every rule has
allow_failure: true, and the retry covers only runner and timeout failures, so the job never
blocks a pipeline. The shipped layer does not change. Size and profiling work needs these
binaries; the binary report job later in this stack compares against them.

Size: 74 core lines, 74 lines in total.

Testing

• applies on the previous PR of the stack: pass
• gomplate v4.3.3 render of .gitlab/templates/pipeline.yaml.tpl, parsed as YAML: pass
• shellcheck on compile_bottlecap.sh: no new finding (10 old infos): pass

The early KEEP_SYMBOLS declaration prevents normal and symbols builds from sharing expensive dependency and toolchain cache layers.

What changed in this PR

Adds retained release binaries for size and profiling analysis of the Lambda extension without changing the shipped layers.

Changes:

• Enables symbol-preserving builds for standard amd64 and arm64 flavors.
• Adds non-blocking CI jobs that run automatically on main and tags, and manually elsewhere.
• Retains stripped and unstripped binaries with build metadata for 90 days.

File	Description
images/​Dockerfile.bottlecap.compile	Adds a build argument to disable release stripping.
.gitlab/​templates/​pipeline.yaml.tpl	Adds symbol-build jobs and retained artifacts.
.gitlab/​scripts/​compile_bottlecap.sh	Passes the symbol flag and uses separate output names.
.gitlab/​datasources/​flavors.yaml	Enables symbol jobs for amd64 and arm64.
