Well, that's easy:
size = 0
for name, st in scandir(path):
if stat.S_ISREG(st.st_mode):
size += st.st_size

Well, the nice thing is that we don't have to create yet another info
object, the downside is that it can be tricky, see above.
We can probably use the DTTOIF macro to convert d_type to st_mode.
