encoding: avoid quadratic time complexity when json-encoding non-UTF8 strings

Apparently the code uses "+=" with a bytes object, which is linear-time, so the
whole encoding is quadratic-time. This patch makes us use a bytearray object,
instead, which has a(n amortized-)constant-time append operation.

The encoding is still not particularly fast, but at least a 10MB file
takes tens of seconds, not many hours to encode.

# Balto (https://bitbucket.org/lothiraldan/balto/src) is a test orchestrator
# which is compatible with all test runner that can emit the LITF
# (https://github.com/lothiraldan/litf) test format.

# The plugin for the Mercurial test runner is mercurial-litf
# (https://pypi.org/project/mercurial-litf/). Make sure to follow the
# instruction and configuration instructions here:
