> (Almost?) every CMake check internally uses the [`try_compile()`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/try_compile.html) command, whose behaviour, in turn, depends on the [`CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE.html) variable:

) linker checks by setting `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` to `STATIC_LIBRARY` globally (perhaps not the best design). This effectively separates the entire CMake script into regions where `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` is:

> > This seems very fragile and unintuitive, and the fact that this could silently break at any point is not documented in any way. I don't think other bad design decisions should lead to us having to write even more boilerplate code to fix things that should "just work" (minus the upstream bugs).

> Agreed. I forgot that we set `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` globally. And even worse, it's buried in a module. If that upsets CMake internal tests, I think we should undo that.
This PR ensures that `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` is modified only within local scopes.
Additionally, the `FUZZ_LIBS` variable has been introduced to handle additional libraries required for linking, rather than link options, in certain build environment, such as OSS-Fuzz.
