+-- of each character. It raises an error if it meets any invalid byte sequence.

+-- A negative n gets characters before position i. The default for i is 1 when n is non-negative
+-- and #s + 1 otherwise, so that utf8.offset(s, -n) gets the offset of the n-th character from the end
+-- of the string.
+-- If the specified character is neither in the subject nor right after its end, the function returns nil.
