Debug mode in the document attribute

[Intelligent2013]

Currently mn2pdf supports the debug mode (generates intermediate XSL-FO, IF, config files) via CLI parameter --debug, -d.
But there isn't possibility to pass this parameter via metanorma command line:

bundle exec metanorma -t iso -x pdf rice-en.final.adoc 

To do: support debug mode via adoc document attribute:

:presentation-metadata-pdfdebug: true

If Metanorma XML contains:

<presentation-metadata><pdfdebug>true</pdfdebug></presentation-metadata>

then it's equal --debug.

@Intelligent2013 isn't this supposed to be a Metanorma CLI option instead of a document attribute? The PDF debug function is clearly a runtime issue not a document issue. I'm not sure if we want to pollute the document with debug options.

@ronaldtse you're right. Just I would like to minimize the change requests for Metanorma CLI. Ok, I'll add the ticket into the metanorma-cli repository.

Thank you, I totally understand but I want us to do things the right way, not the convenient way for internal administration reasons.
