Keep Python key buffers alive in WriteRange/ReadRange

`write()` and `read()` created _Key objects from ephemeral ctypes arrays
backed by local bytearray objects. Once the helpers returned, those local
variables were freed, leaving the C library with dangling pointers when
addWrites()/check() later read the keys.

Store the backing bytearray on the returned WriteRange/ReadRange objects
as private `_begin_buf` / `_end_buf` attributes. Python keeps them alive
for the lifetime of the range object, so the C pointer is always valid.

Closes #42
