Add `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` build option
Add the new build option `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` that controls whether or
not assert functions are compiled out. It defaults to 1 for debug builds
and to 0 for release builds.
Additionally, a following patch will be done to allow this build option
to hide auxiliary code used for the checks done in an `assert()`. This
code is is currently under the DEBUG build flag.
Assert messages are now only printed if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_INFO,
which is the default for debug builds.
This patch also updates the User Guide.
