This commit addresses an inconsistency in the behavior of the Seek method
implemented by embed.FS compared to os.File. Previously, when an invalid
whence value was provided to Seek on an embedded file, the method would
silently ignore the error and perform no operation.

To align the behavior with the standard io.Seeker interface and os.File,
we now explicitly validate the whence parameter. If the provided whence
is not one of io.SeekStart, io.SeekCurrent, or io.SeekEnd, the method
will return an fs.ErrInvalid error. A regression test has also been added
to ensure this behavior remains correct.

Congratulations on opening your first change. Thank you for your contribution!

Next steps:
A maintainer will review your change and provide feedback. See
https://go.dev/doc/contribute#review for more info and tips to get your
patch through code review.

Most changes in the Go project go through a few rounds of revision. This can be
surprising to people new to the project. The careful, iterative review process
is our way of helping mentor contributors and ensuring that their contributions
have a lasting impact.

During May-July and Nov-Jan the Go project is in a code freeze, during which
little code gets reviewed or merged. If a reviewer responds with a comment like
R=go1.11 or adds a tag like "wait-release", it means that this CL will be
reviewed as part of the next development cycle. See https://go.dev/s/release
for more details.

Use io.SeekStart, io.SeekCurrent, and io.SeekEnd constants in
openFile.Seek instead of raw numeric literals. Also update the invalid
whence test to use io.SeekEnd+5.
