Bug 32118: Add optional support for `:` as the modifier

Description Martin Renvoize (ashimema) 2022-11-07 12:06:50 UTC
With bug 26635 we add a new additive function to the embed header options.. +av_expand.. this is a special case in that it's not just pulling in a related object, but also setting a flag to expand coded values and embed them within their own structure.

We also have +relation_count.. to add a single field in a parent structure to just return the 'count' of a relation.. I think we should use :relation_count for this case?

Bug 32118: Add optional support for `:` as the modifier

This patch adds optional support for using `:` as the modifier for
invoking the 'count' method for relations as discussed.

We retain support for `+` for backward compatability to prevent a
breaking change.
