--remap-inputs-file= can be specified multiple times, each naming a
remap file that contains `from-glob=to-file` lines or `#`-led comments.
('=' is used a separator a la -fdebug-prefix-map=)
--remap-inputs-file= can be used to:
* replace an input file. E.g. `"*/libz.so=exp/libz.so"` can replace a resolved
`-lz` without updating the input file list or (if used) a response file.
When debugging an application where a bug is isolated to one single
input file, this option gives a convenient way to test fixes.
* remove an input file with `/dev/null` (changed to `NUL` on Windows), e.g.
`"a.o=/dev/null"`. A build system may add unneeded dependencies.
This option gives a convenient way to test the result removing some inputs.
`--remap-inputs=a.o=aa.o` can be specified to provide one pattern without using
an extra file.
(bash/zsh process substitution is handy for specifying a pattern without using
a remap file, e.g. `--remap-inputs-file=<(printf 'a.o=aa.o')`, but it may be
unavailable in some systems. An extra file can be inconvenient for a build
system.)
Exact patterns are tested before wildcard patterns. In case of a tie, the first
patterns wins. This is an implementation detail that users should not rely on.
