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.

#require symlink

  $ origdir=`pwd`

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo
  $ ln -s nothing dangling

avoid tar warnings about old timestamp

  $ hg ci -d '2000-01-01 00:00:00 +0000' -qAm 'add symlink'

  $ hg archive -t files ../archive
  $ hg archive -t tar -p tar ../archive.tar
  $ hg archive -t zip -p zip ../archive.zip
