cmake: remove need to add "-fsanitize=fuzzer" flag for fuzzers
Right now, users are being instrucded to add the
"-DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS=-fsanitize=fuzzer" flag when they want to
build our fuzzers. This is error-prone and user unfriendly. Instead,
just add the flag to our fuzzers' build instructions so that it happens
automatically. Adjust the README accordingly.
