fuzz: add p2p_private_broadcast harness

Add a fuzz harness targeting ConnectionType::PRIVATE_BROADCAST.
Seeds m_tx_for_private_broadcast via InitiateTxBroadcastPrivate
so PushPrivateBroadcastTx reaches the send-INV and other paths.
Guarantees one PRIVATE_BROADCAST peer per iteration, optionally
adds peers of other types, uses CallOneOf() branching between
guided and arbitrary message types, and verifies the outbound
INV is well-formed after the handshake completes.
