build: add fuzzing infrastructure for security testing

Enable continuous security testing through libFuzzer integration.
Fuzzing helps discover memory corruption bugs, parsing edge cases,
and undefined behavior that traditional unit tests often miss.

Add --enable-fuzzing, --enable-address-sanitizer, and
--enable-ub-sanitizer options to both autotools and CMake.

Initial fuzz target covers PSBT parsing with round-trip verification
to catch serialization inconsistencies.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds new build options and a test harness for fuzzing (automated security testing). It does not change any existing library code that handles PSBTs or other data, so it cannot by itself introduce a security vulnerability or fix one. It is purely an infrastructure addition to help future security testing.

Recommended action

No security action required; review is informational. If fuzzing reveals crashes, those should be triaged and patched separately.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
