Upstream's default is fixme+all,err+all. I don't know of a webpage
explicitly stating such, but you can see that in the source here:
https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/blob/HEAD:/libs/wine/debug.c#l44

I would also request that the default value be kept. The first thing we ask
for in upstream bugzilla is for a log with the default WINEDEBUG output,
and we assume that distributions haven't disabled it. Debian is the only
distribution doing so, to my knowledge.
