`libiberty` has way more things than just D demangler. And some
projects might not be comfortable with its licensing. And
libiberty uses autoconf / automake, which is just gross for
most people.
The idea is to have something simpler, portable (zero conf),
just for this task, so it is as easy as possible to integrate
and have flexible licensing.
Many of the tools do not use libiberty, but just call
`abi::__cxa_demangle` for example. Take a look for for a
heaptrack tool:

You are free to use `libiberty` if you want.
My demangler is just another option.
This demangler I think is already available under a different
licence inside LLVM (I think). My point was mainly to make sure
you knew it existed.
