buf_text: remove offset parameter of BOM detection function

The function to detect a BOM takes an offset where it shall look for a
BOM. No caller uses that, and searching for the BOM in the middle of a
buffer seems to be very unlikely, as a BOM should only ever exist at
file start.

Remove the parameter, as it has already caused confusion due to its
weirdness.
