Users can build separate assembly with pdb, then reference that assembly from their project, and thats it... ( there may be issues with 'copy local' property )

Pdb file has the info for the debugger where to look for the sources.
The only tricky moment here is to have correct path in the pdb file. And the path in the pdb file is set by the compiler that builds the assembly.
