Debug usages not failing in optimized compilation if outputting to /dev/null #2163

Quick Summary: I use the command below in a git prepush. Turns out Debug.todo, Debug.log, etc do not cause a compilation error. elm make src/Main.elm --optimize --output=/dev/null

SSCCE

main = Debug.todo "shouldn't this fail to compile with --optimize --output=/dev/null?"

Elm: 0.19.1
Operating System: macOS 10.15.7

Seems to be the output param, works fine without elm make src/Main.elm --optimize
