Okay, let's process with this (see mail I've sent you privately).

I still want the library to be kept in separate repository. I just want
to embed that one inside phpmyadmin one as a submodule, see
https://git-scm.com/docs/git-submodule

I'm not sure about using Composer - people still expect to find complete
tarball on our website...
