In gh-14518 we added a `--debug-configure`` option, but it didn't work. In one of the refactoring I made the option default value False when it should have been None.
Also added a release note for both gh-14518 and gh-14527. Manually added the second PR's tag line since towncrier will create the first one. Suggestions to improve the release note text are welcome
