diff: do not concatenate immutable bytes while building a/b bodies (issue6445)

Use bytearray instead. I don't know what's changed since Python 2, but bytes
concatenation is 100x slow on Python 3.

  % python2.7 -m timeit -s "s = b''" "for i in range(10000): s += b'line'"
  1000 loops, best of 3: 321 usec per loop

  % python3.9 -m timeit -s "s = b''" "for i in range(10000): s += b'line'"
  5 loops, best of 5: 39.2 msec per loop

Benchmark using tailwind.css (measuring the fast path, a is empty):
