This is to align with the iterator-based interface of the C++ standard library. The current use of indices and npos is inconsistent with the C++ style and causes confusion and inefficiency.
Why do they need iterator-based member functions for finding when we
have iterator-based algorithms that can do the same job? Is
`x.find(...)` really so much better than `find(x, ...)`? And if it is
so much better, why shouldn't these be on all containers and views?
