"folder" -> "directory" everywhere.

It is curious that we do not have any changes to .gitignore
patterns.

    $ git grep fuzz .gitignore Makefile
    .gitignore:/fuzz-commit-graph
    .gitignore:/fuzz_corpora
    .gitignore:/fuzz-pack-headers
    .gitignore:/fuzz-pack-idx
    Makefile:FUZZ_OBJS += fuzz-commit-graph.o
    Makefile:FUZZ_OBJS += fuzz-pack-headers.o
    Makefile:FUZZ_OBJS += fuzz-pack-idx.o
    Makefile:.PHONY: fuzz-objs
    Makefile:fuzz-objs: $(FUZZ_OBJS)
    Makefile:# Always build fuzz objects even if not testing, to prevent bit-rot.
    Makefile:# Building fuzz targets generally requires a special set of compiler flags that
    Makefile:#      CFLAGS="-fsanitize=fuzzer-no-link,address" \
    Makefile:#      LIB_FUZZING_ENGINE="-fsanitize=fuzzer" \
    Makefile:#      fuzz-all
    Makefile:.PHONY: fuzz-all
    Makefile:fuzz-all: $(FUZZ_PROGRAMS)

I do not know what "fuzz_corpora" is, which step in build creates
it, and why we do not have to bother removing it in "make clean",
the last of which is not the fault of this patch, but I suspect that
at least other three existing entries that name $(FUZZ_PROGRAMS)
need to be updated, because ...

... FUZZ_OBJS now live in the oss-fuzz/ directory, and Makefile has

    FUZZ_PROGRAMS += $(patsubst %.o,%,$(FUZZ_OBJS))

    $(FUZZ_PROGRAMS): all
	$(QUIET_LINK)$(CXX) $(FUZZ_CXXFLAGS) $(LIB_OBJS) $(BUILTIN_OBJS) \
		$(XDIFF_OBJS) $(EXTLIBS) git.o $@.o $(LIB_FUZZING_ENGINE) -o $@

neither of which has been touched by the patch, so presumably the
executables are now created in the oss-fuzz/ directory as well, and
they are what .gitignore should be listing, right?

Also, compiling the exectuable files would not be the end of the
story, right?  Do folks (like test script, makefile targets and CI
recipes) who used to run ./fuzz-commit-graph need to be told that
they now need to run oss-fuzz/fuzz-commit-graph instead?  They may
not be inside my tree, but what's the best way to inform them?  Add
entries to release notes (not asking you to add one immediately ---
asking you to help formulating the plans).

Thanks.
