Dear Maintainer,

Please add <llvm-project>/clang/tools/libclang/ directory to the Debian's
/usr/lib/llvm-??/include/clang-tools/

This will allow to develop software in third-party languages ​that can't use
C++ headers directly.

In this case it is possible to write "C++ to C" wrappers (like those already
provided in /usr/lib/llvm-??/include/clang-c/ for some methods) and then use
obtained C symbols. But this cannot be done without files from <llvm-
project>/clang/tools/libclang/

Thank you!
