fuzz-tests: Add a wire test for wireaddr functions

Changelog-None: `towire_wireaddr()` and `fromwire_wireaddr()` in
`common/wireaddr.h` are responsible for marshalling/unmarshalling
BOLT #7 address descriptors.

Since these aren't tested by the existing wire fuzz tests, add a
roundtrip test for them. This has the added benefit of testing
`parse_wireaddr()` as well.
