*
* This is different from rewind in its multi-directional
* requirement and in that its argument is strictly an input cursor (index).
*
* For char streams, seeking forward must update the stream state such
* as line number. For seeking backwards, you will be presumably
* backtracking using the mark/rewind mechanism that restores state and
* so this method does not need to update state when seeking backwards.
*
* Currently, this method is only used for efficient backtracking using
* memoization, but in the future it may be used for incremental parsing.
*
* The index is 0..n-1. A seek to position i means that LA(1) will
* return the ith symbol. So, seeking to 0 means LA(1) will return the
* first element in the stream.
