SI-9302 -Xdisable-assertions raises elide level
Previously, the flag caused any elidable to be elided. This commit simply sets -Xelide-below to ASSERTION + 1. The flag is useful because there's no mnemonic for specifying the magic constant as an option argument. `-Xelide-below ASSERTION` means asserts are enabled.
