[SPARK-56319] ShuffleExternalSorter should reuse write buffer
Why are the changes needed?
In ShuffleExternalSorter, the writeSortedFile() method allocates a new byte[] of diskWriteBufferSize (default 1 MB) on every invocation. This method is called once per spill and once more for the final file write, so in a spill-heavy shuffle task the same 1 MB array is allocated and discarded repeatedly, adding unnecessary GC pressure.
This PR promotes the write buffer to a lazily-initialized instance field so that it is allocated on the first call to writeSortedFile() and reused across subsequent spills. Lazy initialization ensures that the buffer is not allocated until it is actually needed, so tasks that insert no records (and therefore never call into the write path) pay no extra cost.
Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
No.

Existing UTs.
