📝 Detailed Description

What does this PR do?

This PR adds a dedicated cargo-fuzz target for the Oracle contracts under contracts/oracles/fuzz/targets/main.rs. The fuzz target exercises the oracle interfaces using randomized inputs to uncover unexpected panics, edge-case failures, and potential vulnerabilities that are difficult to identify with conventional unit tests.

Additionally, focused tests were added/updated to validate expected behavior and improve overall confidence in the oracle implementation.

Why is this change needed?

Oracle contracts process external data and are security-critical. Traditional unit tests only cover known scenarios, whereas fuzz testing explores a much larger input space automatically.

Adding a fuzz target helps:

• Detect panics and unexpected behavior.
• Improve robustness against malformed or adversarial inputs.
• Increase confidence in oracle logic before deployment.
• Meet the project's testing and security standards.

How was this tested?

• Added and executed the new fuzz target.
• Ran the project's standard test suite.
• Verified the fuzz harness compiles successfully.
• Confirmed existing oracle functionality remains unchanged.

Alternative Solutions Considered

Considered relying solely on unit tests and integration tests, but fuzz testing provides broader coverage by automatically generating edge-case inputs that would be impractical to write manually.

💬 Notes for Reviewers

Please pay special attention to:

• The fuzz target entry point and corpus generation.
• Coverage of oracle edge cases.
• Any additional malformed input scenarios that could improve fuzz effectiveness.

Questions for reviewers:

• Are there additional oracle invariants that should be asserted within the fuzz target?
• Would additional seed corpora improve long-term fuzz coverage?
