py: Remove mp_obj_str_builder and use vstr instead.

With this patch str/bytes construction is streamlined.  Always use a
vstr to build a str/bytes object.  If the size is known beforehand then
use vstr_init_len to allocate only required memory.  Otherwise use
vstr_init and the vstr will grow as needed.  Then use
mp_obj_new_str_from_vstr to create a str/bytes object using the vstr
memory.

Saves code ROM: 68 bytes on stmhal, 108 bytes on bare-arm, and 336 bytes
on unix x64.
