+1 for array_position.
-1 for keeping array_offset. I'm not convinced that there are
sufficient use cases for it. No other array functions deal in offsets
relative to the first element, and if you do want that, it is trivial
to achieve with array_position() and array_lower(). IMO having 2
functions for searching in an array will just increase the risk of
users picking the wrong one by accident.
