We need to decide if we want 1 repo per "tool" or a consolidated tools
repo. My opinion is to add the rtl-host and rtems-coverage as
git-submodules within another repo the project manages as project
tools. My $.02

Otherwise, you should add rtl-host as a git-submodule within
rtems-coverage so you can build and link against rtl-host. The
consumer (coverage) should be dependent on the producer.
