@jonathanmetzman proposed a great idea about saving the machine state just before compiling the fuzz target so that we can compile different fuzz targets from that state later without having to go through the earlier commands.
This is particularly beneficial for
OSS-Fuzz-Gen
.This PR is an (incomplete) PoC at that.
Ideally, we:
