This was an LGTM for the idea of keeping the asm printers (and any other
useful LLVM libraries for plugins) live and available in the opt binary. I
haven't looked at the patch, but I don't really see any risks or downsides
to making plugins able to do cool things or even crazy things. If the patch
looks good to someone, carry on.
