File formats are defined with Kaitai. Files can be interactively explored with the Kaitai IDE using the ksy files.

Firmware is in the extracted md1rom file (000_md1rom).
mtk_dbg_extract.py takes symbols from md1_dbginfo (full filename given by md1_file_map) and outputs them in
a text format that can be imported with Ghidra's ImportSymbolsScript.py script.

...Some debug info files, such as md1_dbginfodsp in the example firmware, contain symbols for multiple files.
For now, the symbols for each file will be printed in sequence with a separator line beginning with #, e.g.:
