We should detect namedtuple's indexing, as it is the case for this example:
```
#!python
from collections import namedtuple
f = namedtuple('a', 'a b')
c = f(1, 2)
print(c[0].lala)
```

Research direction
Reproduce the supplied namedtuple example and trace how astroid infers c[0]. The issue names no files or tests, so first locate the namedtuple and getitem inference entry points, then add coverage showing that c[0].lala is understood as access to the namedtuple field.
