The normal `sizeof` will return a `size_t` although the size of most stuff can be represented in a `uint8_t`. `sizeof_auto`  will return the size in an as small unsigned type as is possible. The result is that expressions that uses `sizeof_auto` can convert to most integral types, and no explicit narrowing cast will be needed.
