Here is a patch to bring those functions back.

Subject: [PATCH] Restore some public functions to debug.el (Bug#40728)
In "Add backtrace-mode and use it in the debugger, ERT and Edebug", on
19 June 2018, three public functions in debug.el were removed.
Restore them so as not to break users' workflows. Since
backtrace-mode now provides the functionality that used to come from
the buttons created by debugger-insert-backtrace, it is now obsolete.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/debug.el (debugger-insert-backtrace): New function.
Mark it as obsolete.
(debugger-toggle-locals, debug-help-follow): New aliases.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/backtrace.el (backtrace--to-string): New function.
(backtrace-to-string): Use it. Fix whitespace.
