docs/devel/testing/fuzzing: Note that you can get qtest to read from a file

Browse Source 
It is possible to get qtest to read fuzzer reproducers from a file
rather than directly from stdio; this is useful when you want to run
QEMU under gdb to debug the failure.  Document how to do this, which
was previously only written down in the commit message for
5b18a6bf44 ("chardev: Allow setting file chardev input file on the
command line").

- Report the bug and send a patch with the C reproducer upstream
QEMU can also read the reproducer directly from a file rather than
from standard input::
$QEMU_PATH $QEMU_ARGS -qtest chardev:repro \
-chardev file,id=repro,path=/dev/null,input-path=/tmp/reproducer
This is useful if you want to run QEMU under a debugger to investigate
the failure.
