Gnulib module: fseek

mingw, MSVC 14.

Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), this function does not set @code{errno}
upon failure.
@item
On platforms where @code{long} is a 32-bit type, @code{fseek} does not work
correctly with files 2 GiB and larger, even when the @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE}
macro is used. The fix is to use @code{fseeko} instead.
