Description

go-libp2p probably gets enough usage that it would be valuable to have a background fuzz testing framework running against it.

if we have a docker image building a `go-fuzz` entrypoint to libp2p, then we can submit to google's oss-fuzz (https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz/tree/master/projects) and the google cloud will do much of the automation.
