[ID3 Dev] Minimum length of an ID3v23 tag

Paul, from the 2.3 spec:

A tag must contain at least one frame. A frame must be at least 1
    byte big, excluding the header.

So that would make the minimum size for a 2.3 tag 21 bytes (tag  
header=10 + 1 frame header=10, + 1 byte of data)

Best,

Mark
