/**
* \brief A stream that supports seeking.
*
* IMPORTANT: If you want to subclass this, override _seekToOffset:,
* _seekForwardWithOffset: and _seekToOffsetRelativeToEnd:, but nothing else.
* Those are not defined in the headers, but do the actual work.
* OFSeekableStream uses those and makes them work together with the caching of
* OFStream. If you override these methods without the _ prefix, you *WILL*
* break caching, get broken results and seek to the wrong position!
