The function seems like overkill to me if we have the type. Just my
opinion though. I'm thinking the type could just be called 'size' too
(or prettysize?). No reason it has to be tied to bytes (in particular
this would work for bits too).
If we're going to add this, I suppose it should support the 'i prefixes'
too (GiB, MiB, etc).
