Niels Lohmann cc472af13f Check the fuzzers' UBJSON/BJData round-trip invariants in the unit tests (#5569)
* Check the fuzzers' UBJSON/BJData round-trip invariants in the unit tests

The strongest correctness checks for the UBJSON and BJData writers lived
only in the OSS-Fuzz drivers: anything from_ubjson()/from_bjdata()
returns must serialize with every option combination, parse back, and
re-serialize stably. Those checks only run at OSS-Fuzz, so regressions
surfaced days later as external reports - the same BJData assert pair
was reported five times over three years, and #5494's harness change
was followed by OSS-Fuzz 563659413 within a day.

Add "UBJSON round-trip invariants" and "BJData round-trip invariants"
test cases that run the drivers' checks on a fixed, deterministic corpus
(tests/src/round_trip_corpus.hpp): integer and float boundaries,
non-finite numbers, strings, binary values, optimized containers, deep
nesting, the JData annotated-array matrix, and seeded random containers.
They also check two properties the drivers do not: the first round trip
preserves the value, and re-serializing reproduces the exact bytes. For
BJData both exclude values containing a binary value, which is read back
as an array of integers unless it was written as a Draft 3 optimized
binary array; this carve-out is now documented in bjdata.md. Run against
the headers before #5542, the BJData test fails, including on the shape
from OSS-Fuzz 563659413.

Also document how OSS-Fuzz reports are handled (reference them as
"OSS-Fuzz: <id>", turn the reproducer into a unit test, keep drivers and
unit tests in sync) in tests/fuzzing.md, and link it from the PR
template and the quality assurance page.

* Add the OSS-Fuzz reproducers for 474400817 and 474480402 as unit tests

Following the convention added to tests/fuzzing.md, the reproducers of
the two BJData fuzzer asserts tracked since January are now unit tests:

- 474400817 (assert(false)): an empty object _ArraySize_ was written as
  the ND-array header length, which from_bjdata() could not read back.
  Fixed by #5455.

- 474480402 (to_bjdata(j2, false, false) == vec2): a one-byte Draft 3
  binary array is written in Draft 2 mode as a uint8 array and then
  re-serialized with the int8 marker. This is the documented exception to
  byte stability, not a library bug; OSS-Fuzz closed it after #5494
  relaxed the harness to value stability. The test pins the exact bytes
  so the exception stays deliberate.

The 563659413 reproducer is already a unit test (#5542). A comment also
ties the existing UBJSON excessive-count test to the timeout OSS-Fuzz
reported for that shape (testcase 6347769435193344).

OSS-Fuzz: 474400817
OSS-Fuzz: 474480402

* Fix GCC -Weffc++ and -Wuseless-cast warnings in the round-trip corpus

Initialize the atoms in the member initialization list, and drop the cast of
the generator's result, which already is std::size_t on 64-bit Linux.

This file implements a parser test suitable for fuzz testing. Given a byte
array data, it performs the following steps:
- j1 = from_ubjson(data)
- vec = to_ubjson(j1)
- j2 = from_ubjson(vec)
- assert(j1 == j2)
- vec2 = to_ubjson(j1, use_size = true, use_type = false)
- j3 = from_ubjson(vec2)
- assert(j1 == j3)
- vec3 = to_ubjson(j1, use_size = true, use_type = true)
- j4 = from_ubjson(vec3)
- assert(j1 == j4)
The unit tests run the same checks on a fixed corpus (see the "UBJSON round-trip
invariants" test case), so keep both in sync.
The provided function `LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput` can be used in different fuzzer
drivers.
