They are not in a git repo, that's the funny part. They are in tools,
just one directory level higher up. But thanks to Kai-Chung I have found
them in another repo now:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/tools/buildSrc

I think I will either follow seamlik's suggestion to package buildSrc or
I merge the two files into src:android-platform-tools-base.

Unfortunately I'm not sure yet. It may well be that
android-tools-annotations is built from tools/base.git, so it's a
circular dependency. I don't mind creating two different source packages
for android-tools-common and android-tools-annotations if this helps to
avoid such a mess.
