PATCH: trailing components

[Peter Stephenson <p.stephenson@samsung.com>]

I needed to preserve a number of trailing components of a path (other
than one) and couldn't think of an easy way of doing it.  Rather than
craft obscure pattern substitutions, or use an ad-hoc expression to
strip the prefix, I came up with a patch to add an optional number after
the "t" in history style modifiers to do this.  I put it after rather
than before because history-style colon expressions are quite sensitive
to what the first character is after the colon.

Before I come up with tests and fix up the ensuing failures, you can let
me know if there's a better way of doing this to save me the trouble.
