fuzz/generic-fuzz: add a limit on DMA bytes written
As we have repplaced fork-based fuzzing, with reboots - we can no longer
use a timeout+exit() to avoid slow inputs. Libfuzzer has its own timer
that it uses to catch slow inputs, however these timeouts are usually
seconds-minutes long: more than enough to bog-down the fuzzing process.
However, I found that slow inputs often attempt to fill overly large DMA
requests. Thus, we can mitigate most timeouts by setting a cap on the
total number of DMA bytes written by an input.
