    The fuzzing quickstart documents the libfuzzer preset with build_fuzz as the build directory, then mentions libfuzzer-nosan as an alternative without noting that this preset uses a different binary directory (build_fuzz_nosan, per CMakePresets.json).

    A reader following the quickstart with --preset=libfuzzer-nosan and then running cmake --build build_fuzz as shown will operate against the wrong (or empty) directory.

    This PR:

    • Adds a one-line note next to the first mention of the nosan preset in the Quickstart, pointing out the directory difference.
    • Adds a small concrete code block in the "Run without sanitizers for increased throughput" section showing the corresponding build_fuzz_nosan commands.

    Pure docs; no code changes.

    as the build directory, then mentions libfuzzer-nosan as an alternative
    without noting that this preset uses a different binary directory
    (build_fuzz_nosan, per CMakePresets.json). A reader following the
    quickstart with --preset=libfuzzer-nosan and then running
    'cmake --build build_fuzz' as shown will operate against the wrong
    (or empty) directory.
    
    Add a note next to the first mention, and provide the corresponding
    nosan commands in the 'Run without sanitizers' section.

    It's probably enough to mention it in a single place - concept ACK
