Continuous fuzzing by way of OSS-Fuzz

[DavidKorczynski]

Hi,

I was wondering if you would like to integrate continuous fuzzing by way of OSS-Fuzz? Fuzzing is a way to automate test-case generation and can be used to find unexpected exceptions in Python. In this PR google/oss-fuzz#8017 we did an initial integration into OSS-Fuzz, and the first overall goal is to extend the fuzzer to achieve optimal code coverage.

OSS-Fuzz is a service run by Google for important open source projects. If you would like to integrate, the only thing I need is a list of email(s) that will get access to the data produced by OSS-Fuzz, such as bug reports, coverage reports and more stats. Notice the emails affiliated with the project will be public in the OSS-Fuzz repo, as they will be part of a configuration file.

nice! we are interested.

for the moment I have listed this on an internal doc we have which lists all our testing of librdkafka based clients, and (prioritized) ideas for improvements. i've also brought it to the attention of the rest of the team. there are some high priority things above this, and we have limited bandwidth so please don't take response time as lack of interest :-).
