This moves the cmake configuration for fuzzers in LLVM to a new macro,
add_llvm_fuzzer. This will make it easier to keep things consistent
while implementing llvm.org/pr34314.
I've also made a couple of minor functional changes here:
- the fuzzers now use add_llvm_executable rather than add_llvm_tool.
This means they won't create install targets and stuff like that,
because those made little sense for these fuzzers.
- I've grouped these under "Fuzzers" rather than in with "Tools" for
people who build with IDEs.

Summary:
This CL is associated with a fuzzing effort to find bugs in LLVM. The
first step is to fuzz llvm-as to find potential issues in generating
IR. Both afl-fuzz and LLVM's lib/Fuzzer are being used.
This CL introduces the executable that implements the in-process
fuzzer using LLVM's lib/Fuzzer. The motivation for using lib/Fuzzer is
based on time comparisons between afl-fuzz and lib/Fuzzer. Early
results show that per-process, the lib/Fuzzer implemenation of llvm-as
(i.e. this CL) generates over 30 times the number of mutations found
by afl-fuzz, per hour runtime. The speedup is due to the removal of
overhead of forking a process, and loading the executable into memory.
I placed this under the tools directory, since it is an executable. It
is also only conditionally built if (using cmake) the flag
LLVM_USEE_SANITIZE_COVERAGE is used, so that it isn't built by
default.
