release: ship dx-windows-*-pdb.zip debug symbols with each Windows cell #8428
Description
Follow-up from #8410. Blocked until #8410 lands with matching relocated PDB digests on both Windows cells and /DEBUG:NONE removed from //cli/cli:dx.
Where
deploy/release/matrix.bzl:84release_cells: Windows cells archive onlydx.exe, NOTICE and IDENTITY.cli/cli/BUILD.bazel::dx_pdbfilegroup (output_group = "pdb_file"), added by release: reproducible PDB for Windows dx.exe so debug symbols can ship #8410..github/workflows/release-cells.ymlandrelease.yml: the uploaded asset list.
Fix
Package dx.pdb into a separate dx-windows-<cpu>-pdb.zip per Windows cell, add it to the checksums, signing and SBOM of the release, and have deploy/release/src/cell.rs compare its rebuild digest like the main archive. Test in deploy/release/matrix_tests.bzl and //deploy/release:release_host_cell_test. Show it with evidence task=build relocate=true scope=//deploy/release:dx_host_cell flags=--config=dx_release on windows_x86_64 and windows_arm64.

Blocked on #8410, which has no open PR. Draft PR #8467 is rebased on main and builds both pdb zips (evidence run 42221573046). The relocated rebuild still differs because
dx.exeanddx_upstream.pdbdiffer after relocation, as in #8410's run 42216510920. Once #8410 is fixed, rerun that evidence and mark #8467 ready.github-actions commentedon Nov 6, 2026

Evidence run 42235987911 passed on windows_x86_64 and windows_arm64 (
task=build relocate=true,--config=dx_release,//deploy/release:dx_host_cell //deploy/release:dx_host_cell_pdb) with #8467 merged into #8568's branch. #8467 is ready; #8428 is done once both #8568 and #8467 land.
