I'm reproducing the second part of the first day of Advent of Code, with permission from the creator.

Santa is trying to deliver presents in a large apartment building, but he can't find the right floor - the directions he got are a little confusing. He starts on the ground floor (floor 0) and then follows the instructions one character at a time.

An opening parenthesis, (, means he should go up one floor, and a closing parenthesis, ), means he should go down one floor.

The apartment building is very tall, and the basement is very deep; he will never find the top or bottom floors.

Given a set of instructions, find the position of the first character that causes him to enter the basement (floor -1).

As examples:

input ) causes him to enter the basement at character position 1.

input ()()) causes him to enter the basement at character position 5.

A long input is given here that should yield the solution 1797.

This is code golf, so the shortest solution wins!
