"diagtool tree" and "diagtool show-enabled" are at least theoretically useful 
externally, though we don't document them anywhere. I kind of figured things in 
tools/ are potentially useful outside of clang and could be installed, and 
things in utils/ were just for internal use. I don't think that was ever 
formally established, though.
