Set the position indicator to the specified `position` and return the resulting absolute position on success or pos_type(‐1) on failure. Optionally specify `which` area of the stream buffer. The `seekpos` operation will fail if `which` does not include the flag `bsl::ios_base::in` or if position is less then zero or greater than the value returned by `length`.
