the function is called stridx(). Note that it returns the *byte* index. This
might matter if you have encoding set to UTF-8 and the string in which you
want to search contains non-ASCII letters before the first occurrence of the
search string, e.g.,
:echo stridx('Jürgen', 'rg')
prints 2 if encoding is set to latin1, but prints 3 if encoding is set to
UTF-8.
