Are there any other packages providing /usr/bin/cc, /usr/bin/c++
(shipping files, setting up alternatives, diverting stuff, ...) that
could serve as examples?

The easiest solution I see here is to move /usr/bin/clang++-libc++ and
the c++ alternative to a separate package

Package: c++squared
Arch: all
Multi-Arch: foreign (???)
Depends: libc++-dev, clang++

(btw, can we use g++ with libc++?)

I also don't think it is a good idea to have a
  lib(std)?c++(-[-.0-9]+)?-dev
package "manipulate" a compiler.
