Description:
According to https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/fd704a8fae525a5eabe0e2c9d9b258732db7cb01, MySQL use compilation options "-g1"

It makes coredump useless for official Linux-generic package:
1. there's no symbols of variables/types/...
2. we could not reproduce compile hosts (pb2-el6-07.regionaliad02.mysql2iad.oraclevcn.com)

Make "-g3" mysqld tar, or make a debuginfo of generic package will help

How to repeat:
1. Install mysqld 8.0.30 by Linux-generic package
2. gdb mysqld
3. "info types" will list nothing

Suggested fix:
Make "-g3" mysqld tar, or make a debuginfo of generic package
