bug#25626: 25.1; doc of `bufferpos-to-filepos' for type `exact'

[Drew Adams]

The doc string says this:

  ‘exact’, in which case we may end up re-(en/de)coding a large
    part of the file/buffer.

And (elisp) `Text Representations' says this:

  ‘exact’
    The result must be accurate.  The function may need to encode
    and decode a large part of the buffer.

If I understand the code right, I think both of these are misleading.
They can give the impression that the text in the region can have its
encoding changed in its buffer.

But when `bufferpos-to-filepos' encodes some text it puts the resulting
text in a different, temporary buffer, and returns its position - the
original text (in the original buffer) does not have its encoding
changed.

Please consider clarifying this, so that it lets users know that the
encoding cost of `exact' is only one of performance and that the buffer
text is not changed in any way (in particular, its encoding is not
changed).

Or if I'm mistaken, and it does possibly change the encoding of some of
the buffer text, then please consider clarifying the doc to state this
explicitly.

In other words, please elaborate on (clarify) what is meant by "may need
to encode and decode a large part of the buffer" and "may end up
re-(en/de)coding a large part of the file/buffer".
