We were using an outdated CBOR crate for MSRV reasons. But this old
crate is causing suprious test failures. So delete it. (Sadly, updating
the crate doesn't fix the issue, replacing it with ciborium breaks our
MSRV tests because it needs a more recent `half` dependency, and
replacing it with `minicbor` doesn't work because minicbor is not based
on serde. So we don't really have any options.)
In general, I am suspicious of this decode-then-reencode test. CBOR has
some ambiguity in integer encoding. Empirically it has seemed to
work for a long time, but this seems more like an indictment of our test
than a positive result.
Also, round-trip testing serde encoding of a byte vector is probably not
a great use of our fuzz resources. I don't believe we have ever had a
problem with this.
Fixes#2801
We should probably restore this in the future, but we need to rethink
how we fuzz hashes -- right now when cfg(fuzzing) is set, we break all
the hash functions in a way that won't match any other library.
We should probably make this breakage opt-in but this will require
buy-in from rust-lightning and maybe others.
AFAICT we literally never used this; it was available only on the
bitcoin targets and not the honggfuzz ones; AFL has a broken dep
tree (or at least, requires some more MSRV pins that I did not care
to investigate).
Just remove it entirely.
