[New-bugs-announce] [issue23383] Clean up bytes formatting

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

Proposed patch makes following changes to bytes formatting code:

1) Fixes a bug when PyUnicode_AsEncodedObject() returns non-bytes byte-like object.

2) Avoid few non-neccessary memory allocations and copyings (converting bytearray or ASCII string to bytes).

3) Clean up the code.
