Subject: [PATCH] Optimize _encode_error_event

The optimized version achieves a **53% speedup** through several key optimizations targeting the hot paths in protobuf encoding:

**1. Single-byte varint caching**: A precomputed cache `_varint_single_byte_cache` eliminates repeated bytearray allocations for values 0-127 (common in field numbers, booleans, small integers). This directly optimizes `_varint()` and `_bool()` functions.

**2. List-based concatenation strategy**: Both `_map_str_str()` and `_encode_error_event()` now use list accumulation with `b"".join()` instead of repeated `bytearray +=` operations. This reduces memory copying overhead significantly when building large messages.

**3. Local function reference optimization**: In `_map_str_str()`, frequently called functions are cached as local variables (`append = outs.append`, `ld = _len_delimited`, `s = _string`) to avoid repeated attribute lookups in the inner loop.

**Performance impact by test case**:
- **Large-scale tests show the biggest gains**: 61.6% faster for 1000 attributes, 62.4% faster for large maps with long strings
- **Small/medium tests**: Generally neutral to slightly faster (1-8% improvements)
- **Edge cases**: Slight variations but consistent correctness

The optimizations are most effective when encoding many map entries or building large messages, as evidenced by the dramatic improvements in tests with hundreds of attributes. For typical small error events, the overhead is minimal while maintaining the same significant benefits for high-throughput scenarios.
