GH-134453: Fix subprocess memoryview input handling on POSIX (GH-134949)

Fix inconsistent subprocess.Popen.communicate() behavior between Windows
and POSIX when using memoryview objects with non-byte elements as input.

On POSIX systems, the code was incorrectly comparing bytes written against
element count instead of byte count, causing data truncation for large
inputs with non-byte element types.

Changes:
- Cast memoryview inputs to byte view when input is already a memoryview
- Fix progress tracking to use len(input_view) instead of len(self._input)
- Add comprehensive test coverage for memoryview inputs

* assertIsNone review feedback
* fix memoryview_nonbytes test to fail without our fix on main, and have a nicer error.

Thanks to Peter Bierma @ZeroIntensity for the code review.
