I agree, and thanks for finding and fixing this issue.
Upon reading strbuf_grow(), I would expect it to work the same
as ALLOC_GROW(), but its documentation clearly states a very
different result.

This would be my preferred way to go here.

Please do not add "addf" functions that can be run in tight loops.
It's faster to do strbuf_add() followed by strbuf_addch().
