headers_dict_to_raw performance regressed in many_repeated_headers (e.g. cookies) case

I believe it`s cause of using bytes leads to frequent object recreation and copying, which is more expensive than growing a bytearray, especially when building larger payloads.

but headers_raw_to_dict shows improvements across all cases.

given that real-world headers are rarely tiny, I plan to stick with bytearray for now, as it provides more consistent performance under realistic conditions.
