Set the options to the flags in the specified `flags`. The options for the reader are persistent, i.e., the options are not reset by `close`. The behavior is undefined if this method is called after calling `open` and before calling `close`; except that derived classes are permitted to specify valid behavior for calling this function for specific arguments while the reader is open.
