DSL: Get substring index (i.e. strings.Index())?

[archetyped]

Apologies if this is referenced elsewhere, but in Miller's DSL, is there a way to search for a substring within a string and return the substring's position in the string?

Basically something like Go's strings.Index() method:

idx := strings.Index("or", "Ready or Not")
// Returns: 7

@archetyped great idea! :)

@archetyped Go's strings.Index takes the substring as the second arg, not the first.

PR #1247 follows this convention -- but is of course 1-up with its indices since Miller is 1-up.

Indeed, I got it flipped turned upside down.

Looks great! Thanks 👍
