This is a bit nitpicking from my side, but usually when referring to the
name of a function, I would suggest adding the parentheses, i.e.
"bytes_add_one()". In this way, it's more clear that it's a function
(instead of a variable or something else).
simplified to `Result` as default type parameters are unit `()` and
`Error` types. Thus keep the usage of `Result` consistent throughout
codebase.
