f24ed6d39f963e7f1c0b4dbd9b784132ef975f2a Delete README_osx.md and move its contents into build-osx.md (Martin Erlandsson) Pull request description: With its current name, the file `doc/README_osx.md` looks like an entry point README for OSX users, but it only contains specific instructions on how to build a DMG. This PR deletes the file and moves the contents of the file into `doc/build-osx.md`.

This is ineffective as the fuzzer needs to "learn" how the fuzz targets are organized and could get easily confused. Not to mention that the (seed) corpus can not be categorized by target, since targets might "leak" into each other. Also the corpus would potentially become invalid if we ever wanted to remove a target... Solve that by building each fuzz target into their own executable.

Mostly, I layed out the concept to open the PR for refinement and getting feedback if the approach is okay. Changes are expected. Two points: - The values for both new consts `TESTNET_BLOCK_CHAIN_SIZE` and `TESTNET_CHAIN_STATE_SIZE` is certainly not optimal; I just checked the size of my testnet3 related dirs and set them to little bit higher values. Which values should be used? - Should we do something like this to regtest? Or these "niceties" do not matter when on regtest? Thanks!
