Title:
  Need to provide access to the count of items for translations to work

Status in “libusermetrics” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Unlike English (and Spanish, Italian and other ones), some languages
  have multiple plural forms, which the SDK supports using the i18n.tr()
  call in QML. One example with multiple plural forms is Arabic.

  For this to work, we need to access the actual count of items and pass
  it to the i18n.tr() function, e.g.

  format: i18n.tr("%1 song played today", "%1  songs played today",
  songCount).arg(songCount) (*)

  But it seems libusermetrics is not making the count accessible to QML,
  hence this request to make the count available.

  (*) Note: the syntax is slightly redundant right now, but it works.
  See bug 1184810
