texmf/fonts/lig/<package> seems right to me.

The obvious alternative texmf/afm2pl/lig seems to be wrong for two
reasons:
  - the information stored in these files is font-related
  - other programs might want to make use of these files some day;
    we should have learned our lesson from e.g. enc files
