I wonder if there should be even more emphasis on ascii and unicode code
points up to U+07FF (which maps to two UTF-8 bytes).

Irritating blank line. ;)

You could do an initial talloc of the buf based on char_count,
e.g. twice that.

I'd probably write that (offset + 8 >= buf_size).

We'll probably want messages completely without tags in the tests
too. How about a parameter to define the random-corpus tag. Which can be
left out too. And if it's present, another parameter to tell whether it
should be added even if num_tags == 0.

Do the tags always come out sorted from the library? I'm wondering if
it's a good idea to always put random-corpus there first. If it matters,
you could use random () % num_tags to decide the position in the tag
list to put the random-corpus tag in.

BR,
Jani.
