`SocketStream.receive` sometimes returns `bytearray` objects on Windows

Things to check first

• I have searched the existing issues and didn't find my bug already reported there

• I have checked that my bug is still present in the latest release

AnyIO version

4.4.0

Python version

3.11

What happened?

StreamProtocol, here: https://github.com/agronholm/anyio/blob/master/src/anyio/_backends/_asyncio.py#L1075
incorrectly assumes that it will only get bytes objects as an argument. Unfortunately, on Windows, that's not the case. For the ProactorEventLoop, we'll get bytearray objects here.

See:

• asyncio.Protocol.data_received should also accept bytearray alongside bytes python/typeshed#12606
• asyncio.BaseProactorEventLoop feeds bytearray objects to the Protocol.data_received callback, contradicting docs python/cpython#123496

I think the quickest fix for anyio is to accept bytearray as well, and convert it into bytes, regardless of what typeshed/cpython do.

How can we reproduce the bug?

(Sorry, I don't have access to a Windows machine right now to create an example, but please let me know if an example script is needed.)

It looks like it was fixed in cpython v3.12.0a4 thanks to this commit:
python/cpython@1bb68ba

However, it would still be good to handle the issue here for Python 3.10 and 3.11. (3.9 doesn't have the issue).

Review welcome. As I mentioned in the CPython issue, I was able to locally reproduce this even on the latest 3.12 release.
