Suggestion: find-file-literally and "raw reading"

These functions are good for preventing buffer translation

    find-file-literally
    insert-file-contents-literally

but it would be even beter if the functions took additional prefix
argument to control other possible actions that may aoccur when the
file is loaded.

Proposed prefix argument would completely disable any kind of
treatment of the buffer, like:

    auto-mode-alist
    interpreter-mode-alist
    find-file-hooks
    find-file-not-found-hooks

    ...coding systems..

and present the "raw" representation of the file as it is
in the disk.
