[cmake] Add LLVM_BUILD_DEBUG to llvm-config.h

Some LLVM libraries may conditionally define some class members depending on whether LLVM build type == Debug. However, relying on `NDEBUG` for this may create situations in which the consumer of a header in a downstream project has a different definition for `NDEBUG`, resulting in an ODR violation. The use of `LLVM_BUILD_DEBUG` should be preferred in these cases.
