change_frame_size has no idea whether it is called for a text or a
graphical frame. Text frames might want to call it as before using
character sizes. Callers that are able to process pixels and want them
applied will call it with pixel sizes. In any case, the callers have to
strip space used for tool- or menubars because change_frame_size does
not know whether these are part of the frame or not.

Doing that would just leave things as they are now.
When I maximize a frame, that frame may get a new pixel size which is
not necessarily a multiple of the frame's character size. If I now want
to resize that frame's windows (and not leave some spare pixels at the
bottom of the frame as we do now) I have to communicate the new pixel
size of the frame's root window to the window resizing mechanism. The
function that does that is change_frame_size.
