gas: extend \+ support to .irp / .irpc
PR gas/31752 These are effectively macro-like, without any separate macro definition. They already support \@, so they would better also support \+.

- given macro has been executed. This is similar to the already existing \@
- syntax, except that the count is maintained on a per-macro basis.
