Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Inspired by the kitchen discussion we had yesterday and #6292 (comment) .

It would be nice to be able to cover more combinations of

  1. architecture (x86, arm, risc-v etc.)
  2. sanitizers (kasan, kmsan, kcsan etc.)
  3. trees (more public, more private)
  4. kernel_configs
  5. attack_point (root, user, capabilities etc.)

Multiplying all these options we're getting too many target configurations.
The alternative may be to have a few instances focused on the coverage extension and the workers who are actually executing this corpus on the target systems.

I'm 98% sure this approach was previously discussed. @dvyukov, am I duplicating some existing issue/doc?

Experiments required

  1. How many bugs are found by the programs that don't add new coverage?
  2. TODO
