       Encode an M-text into a buffer area. The mconv_encode_buffer() function encodes M-text mt based on coding
       system name and writes the resulting byte sequence into the buffer area pointed to by buf. At most n
       bytes are written. A temporary code converter for encoding is automatically created and freed.

           If the operation was successful, mconv_encode_buffer() returns the number of written bytes. Otherwise
           it returns -1 and assigns an error code to the external variable merror_code.
