Ability to search by number of open prefixes/suffixes #48

This is the same as https://github.com/benjaminjackman/looty/issues/29 but that one was closed due to the exitance of emc which is useful but can't differentiate between prefix and suffix and has some issues with two mod affixes.

I looked at the data returned from the API and agree that it's not straightforward but I wonder if it's worth using the raw mod data to make an estimate: https://github.com/brather1ng/RePoE

Probably the json could be processed for easier run time checks but not sure if there's interest here.

In my understanding its very complex task, which better programmers (not working for ggg) were not able to make 100% accurate. I wouldn't want to make comparisons with such big number of mods - its not like there is way to 100% resolve that some affix is prefix or suffix, because those with same stats are computed together like:

(totally not real example) suffix: +10 strength prefix: +10 strength and 39 accuracy

Only ggg knows for sure what is what, so they can implement that option on their official trade site. you get in json +20strength and 39 accuracy So you see the problem (there is more then 1000 of mods) now to take every stat and try to aproximate which is sum of 2/3 its pretty insane :( I'd rather work with solid facts then approximations with this problem.
