Using LLVM's libfuzzer with Swift

Background

Of the many tools available for fuzzing, I've found that LLVM's libfuzzer is the easiest to use for Swift on macOS. Other tools seem to have a list of requirements taht are difficult to meet. libfuzzer on the other hand is built into LLVM and is available on macOS in the custom Swift toolchains: https://www.swift.org/download/

In this document I'll describe how to use libfuzzer with Swift and Swift Packages.

I used this setup to fuzz an SVG Renderer package that I am building. I was able to find and fix a number of bugs in my SVG parsing code using libfuzzer in basically no time at all.
