Uniq: --count flag to count occurences (#2017) 
* uniq: Add counting option (WIP!)

Usage:

fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/timbray/topfew/master/test/data/access-1k | lines | wrap item | uniq | sort-by count | last 10

* uniq: Add first test

* uniq: Re-enable the non-counting variant.

* uniq: Also handle primitive lines.

* uniq: Update documentation

* uniq: Final comment about error handling. Let's get some feedback

* uniq: Address review comments.

Not happy with the way I create a TypeError. There must be a cleaner
way. Anyway, good for shipping.

* uniq: Use Labeled_error as suggested by jturner in chat.

* uniq: Return error directly.
