// Knobs (will) control all randomized choices made by the fuzzing engine.
//
// The intent is to find optimal values for knobs using machine learning.
//
// Examples of the choices that the engine can make using knobs:
// * Choosing whether to add a given element to the corpus based on what
//   features it has, its size, its resource consumption, etc.
// * Choosing a corpus element to mutate, or an element pair to cross-over.
//   E.g. make the choice depending on the features associated with elements,
//   their sizes, etc.
// * Choosing how to mutate.
//   E.g. whether to insert, overwrite, swap, etc., or whether to cross-over.
//
// `Knobs` is effectively a fixed-size array of bytes with named elements.
// The engine loads this array at startup or uses a default value zero.
// The engine may also pass Knobs to a custom mutator that supports it.
//
// Each knob has its own interpretation.
// Some knobs are probability weights, with `0` meaning "never" or "rare"
//  and 255 meaning "frequently".
// Some knobs have a meaning in combination with other knobs, e.g.
//  when choosing one of N strategies, N knobs will be used as weights.
// Some knobs may mean the number of repetitions of a certain process.
//
// A knob value is accessed via a KnobId.
// KnobIds are created by Knobs::New() as file-scope globals.
// The allocation of KnobIds is stable between the executions of the engine,
// but will change when the engine changes in some significant way
// (e.g. new knobs are added/removed or linking order changes).
// I.e. the optimal knob values will need to be re-learned after major changes
// in the engine.
// This way knobs can be created locally in every source file, w/o having a
// centralized knob repository.
//
// A KnobId can be used to access a knob value: Knobs::Value().
// A set of KnobIds can be used to choose from several choices: Knobs::Choose().
// One KnobID can be used to choose from two choices: Knobs::GenerateBool().
//
// TODO(kcc): figure out how to share knobs with other processes/binaries,
// such as custom mutators.
