Actually, I never implemented SPEEX_GET_QUALITY. It's not that usefule
anyway, but I might do it in the future.

Use speex_mode_query with SPEEX_SUBMODE_BITS_PER_FRAME
You need to pass the submode number with the pointer and the number of
bits per frame is returned using the same pointer. Note that with
speex_mode_query, the first argument is the mode (e.g. &speex_nb_mode),
not the encoder/decoder state.
