Add support for new tool

(Example: 2ba826d)

1. Add base manifest to tools/codegen/base directory.

See JSON files in tools/codegen/base directory for examples of the manifest.

2. Generate manifest with the following command (replace <tool> with the tool name).

./tools/manifest.sh <tool>

If you're having problem with github api rate limit, you can use your GITHUB_TOKEN to increase the rate limit. If you have Github CLI installed (the command gh), you can:

GITHUB_TOKEN=$(gh auth status --show-token 2>&1 | sed -n 's/^.*Token: \(.*\)$/\1/p') ./tools/manifest.sh <tool>

3. Add tool name to test matrix in .github/workflows/ci.yml.

4. Add tool name to the table in "Supported tools" section in README.md.
