## usage: findstr (s, t [, overlap])
##
## Returns the vector of all positions in the longer of the two strings
## S and T where an occurence of the shorter of the two starts.
##
## If the optional argument OVERLAP is nonzero, the returned vector
## can include overlapping positions (this is the default).
##
## For example,
##
## findstr ("abababa", "aba") => [1, 3, 5]
## findstr ("abababa", "aba", 0) => [1, 5]
