gh-139871: Add bytearray.take_bytes([n]) to efficiently extract bytes (GH-140128)
Update `bytearray` to contain a `bytes` and provide a zero-copy path to
"extract" the `bytes`. This allows making several code paths more efficient.

This does not move any codepaths to make use of this new API. The documentation
changes include common code patterns which can be made more efficient with
this API.

---

When just changing `bytearray` to contain `bytes` I ran pyperformance on a
`--with-lto --enable-optimizations --with-static-libpython` build and don't see
any major speedups or slowdowns with this; all seems to be in the noise of
my machine (Generally changes under 5% or benchmarks that don't touch
bytes/bytearray).
