Enable and disable Xdebug quickly on OS X homebrew php 7.1

Xdebug is a powerful tool for debugging PHP code, but it can be a memory hog when it is continuously turned on. Xdebug can be quickly enabled and disabled by creating simple custom scripts.

Download these shell files on your Mac, make them executable and you are good to go!
