Jacob's answer is better, but I'll answer your questions below.

You could try this:
# debug output
module(load="builtin:omfile" file="/var/log/rsyslog-debug.log"
template="RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat")
If RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat doesn't give you enough detail, try
RSYSLOG_DebugFormat
All of those events to be sent to the database are also going to
/var/log/secure.
Hmm - strange - it is ignoring file="/var/log/rsyslog-debug.log" ?
What is the purpose of this rsyslog-debug.log?
To see what is being sent to mysql
Will this "debug output" rsyslog-debug.log be in _addition_ to regular
logfiles, or replace my current configuration?
Yes.
We currently have ~10 different logfiles - if this debug configuration
replaces the original, won't that concatenate all logs into one file?
It doesn't _replace_ the original, it is _in addition to_ the original.
Yes - so if that isn't acceptable, you'll have to add some sort of logic to say
"only send the logs I'm sending to mysql to the debug log file"
