Also I have no idea how you'd like the generation to be invoked, e.g. `make data` in the ctype source directory, the libc source directory, a target directory, whatever. Please state your preference.

Optimally: neither.  This should happen automatically when needed, not just by manual trigger.  Otherwise there would not really be much point putting this in the Makefile at all.
Thanks but this is in contrast to Corinna's advice, today and on 4.12.2017:

in the repo and manually calling the generation targets sounds right to me.
Only maintainers (or interested parties) need to do this once in a while.
So I think I'll follow that approach.
