[issue4572] add SEEK_* values to io and/or io.IOBase

New submission from gumpy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Currently io.IOBase.seek(offset[, whence]) uses magic numbers for the second argument. Since this is essentially identical the C function fseek I think adding the same "constants" that C uses (SEEK_SET=0, SEEK_CUR=1, SEEK_END=2) may be worth consider
