set-process-coding-system is a built-in function in `src/process.c'.
(set-process-coding-system PROCESS &optional DECODING ENCODING)

Set coding systems of PROCESS to DECODING and ENCODING.
DECODING will be used to decode subprocess output and ENCODING to
encode subprocess input.

[back]

Setting DECODING to no-conversion will give byte streams to the filter
function.  There is the problem of how to deal with incomplete
characters in this case.
