uploaded bytes with the normal read function/callback). It is also called to
rewind a stream when doing a HTTP PUT or POST with a multi-pass authentication
method. The function shall work like "fseek" or "lseek" and accepted SEEK_SET,
SEEK_CUR and SEEK_END as argument for origin, although (in 7.18.0) libcurl
only passes SEEK_SET. The callback must return 0 (CURL_SEEKFUNC_OK) on
success, 1 (CURL_SEEKFUNC_FAIL) to cause the upload operation to fail or 2

passes SEEK_SET. The callback must return 0 (CURL_SEEKFUNC_OK) on success, 1
(CURL_SEEKFUNC_FAIL) to cause the upload operation to fail or 2
(CURL_SEEKFUNC_CANTSEEK) to indicate that while the seek failed, libcurl is
