Pierre showed up in IRC and mentioned that someone suggested
`gdb/contrib'. I could not find the thread/message, but I support this
idea FWIW. `gdb/contrib/ari' would be good, then.
My rationale is that ARI is not part of GDB as a program nor distributed
with it, so creating `gdb/ari' would perhaps confuse people because
there are other directories there like `gdb/mi' or `gdb/cli'.
My 2 cents.
