public bool save_to_buffer (out uint8[] buffer, string type, ...) throws Error
Saves pixbuf to a new buffer in format `type`, which is currently "jpeg", "png", "tiff", "ico" or "bmp".
This is a convenience function that uses `gdk_pixbuf_save_to_callback()` to do the real work.
Note that the buffer is not `NUL`-terminated and may contain embedded `NUL` characters.
If error is set, `FALSE` will be returned and buffer will be set to `NULL`. Possible errors include those in
the `GDK_PIXBUF_ERROR` domain.
See `gdk_pixbuf_save()` for more details.
