Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm having an issue where I can't adjust timing around a label in animate., ie [[..anim1], 'label', [..anim2], [{...anim, at: '[label]-0.4'}]

Describe the solution you'd like
Support syntax for time offset on labels
something like: { at: '[<label>]+0.2' }

Describe alternatives you've considered
trying to do the math to figure out where the playhead should be which is very onerous

Additional context
I am trying to do some very intricate animations with staggered effects

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing animate.at handling and label timing from the animation entry points, using the issue's examples as the required syntax. Compare positive and negative offsets from labels; done means both forms resolve to the intended playhead times and are covered by tests.
