The bug should be fixed as described by Roman.

tuple:bsize() behaviour should be changed to be more accurate,
i.e. return entire binary footprint of a tuple.

No need to introduce a new function.

I don't think it's a "true" incompatible change, the purpose of
bsize() has always been to inform the user about the binary
footprint, so we're simply fixing a bug in the implementation.
