contrib: alternative ladder diagram format

Hi all, I wrote a script and am wondering whether it makes sense to publish it in libosmocore/contrib/. For codec negotiation patches, I was writing ladder diagrams manually in the mscgen format, and it was so annoying to type "[label=]" all the time, that I decided to write a script that parses a leaner ladder diagram format and converts it to mscgen format. I was going to use this format in osmo-msc.git, but actually, after I wrote the first osmo-msc codec ladder diagram, I went a step further and automated the process by transcribing an osmo-msc log output directly to a ladder diagram. That script can output to mscgen format, so in the end there is no dependency on that simpler ladder format from my osmo-msc patches. When writing ladder diagrams manually in the future, I'll probably choose my simpler ladder format. I could always submit the converted format instead of that, i.e. keep the simpler format to myself entirely. I could publish the script privately... Any opinions? Does it make sense to put this in libosmocore/contrib/ before any Osmocom git trees actually depend on it?
