Fix a couple of issues with changing the stream external format in
midstream. o When changing the external format, the new converted characters need to go into the string-buffer at the point after the last character was read. This maintains consistency if the format is changed again before we have to read in another buffer of octets. o Handle the case where an external format that uses the string-buffer is changed to ISO8859-1, which doesn't. In this case, the converted characters need to be copied to the in-buffer in the right place and the string-buffer needs to be set to NIL to indicate that the string-buffer is not used anymore. o Add a note that we don't handle the case of changing ISO8859-1 to another external-format that uses a string-buffer.
