The fuzz job caches the fuzz corpus and uploads any failure as artifact
(manual download is required to integrate this to testdata/fuzz).

At this moment, this is run only on pull requests and merge to master.

We want to produce a simple acknowledgement report, nothing too fancy.

Also: refactored CONTRIBUTING guidelines to refer to DCO terms.

File CONTRIBUTORS.md is updated once a week (or manually triggered).
This posts a pull request, which not auto-merged yet (there a few github
action hurdles to overcome to achieve that).
