There are some use-cases where child nodes with a specific name need to
be parsed. In a few cases the data from the found nodes is added to an
array which is allocated based on the number of found nodes. One example
of such use is the IIO subsystem's ADC channel nodes, where the relevant
nodes are named as channel[@N].

Add a helper for counting device's sub-nodes with certain name instead
of open-coding this in every user.
