As a followup from #7589 (comment),
I audited all occurrences of bytes in builtins.pyi by reading the corresponding C code
on CPython main.

Most use the C buffer protocol, so _typeshed.ReadableBuffer is the right type. A few
check specifically for bytes and bytearray.

Showing that the first overload accepts buffers but the second doesn't.

Thanks, I didn't double check, but the changes look reasonable.

Unfortunately, this will also accept memoryview at the moment, but having it more explicit can't hurt.

That's a mypy bug :)

It's working as documented. In the past when reviewing I've always asked people to remove bytearray from argument types due to that.
