Emacs built-in buffer-size returns the number of characters ---
in some situations one needs the count of bytes.
Here is a small function that does this --- perhaps it could be
ncluded in subr.el?
(defsubst buffer-bytes (&optional buffer)
"Return number of bytes in a buffer."
(save-excursion
(and buffer (set-buffer buffer))
(1- (position-bytes (point-max)))))
