Description
Looking to add the functionality of tpope's Speeddating plugin. This would allow the quick modification of numbers and dates from normal mode.
Additional context

Other plugins
- VSCode Progressive Increment Only does numbers by 1 or 10.
- Increment Selection Does increment or decrement by visual selection.
- Increment This allows for Enums and Decimal Places as well as basic operations This is the extension I'm using now

Research direction
Start by reading tpope/vim-speeddating's plugin/speeddating.vim at line 76 to understand the formats the feature must detect. Then locate the VSCode Vim extension's normal-mode keybinding and count-handling entry points; done means supporting and changes for those formats with counts.
