Why do you want to create a generic tree_ann_t object?  What annotations
are you trying to add?  It'd be better to sub-type them like we did for
the others.

I agree with the name change for tree_ann, but I don't think we want to
create objects of tree_ann_t.  There'd be no way of checking that they
are attached to the right trees.
