32 /// - `offset`: Absolute byte offset from the start of the stream.
33 /// - `buffer`: Bytes to write.

39 /// Returns an error when reading the current position, seeking to `offset`,
40 /// writing bytes, or restoring the original position fails. If restoration
41 /// fails, the restoration error is returned.
