Be able to determine how many times a search term has appeared in filter when using acrossElements

[rbhalla]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently if you match a term using acrossElements: true, every mark in every element increments the counters provided in filter. If you want to (for example) only mark the first instance of that term, you don't have a counter for that.

Describe the solution you'd like A separate counter to track how many times a single match has been marked.

Describe a potential solution approach Described above.

Additional context Here is an example of the problem: https://jsfiddle.net/xtdchk1a/1/

If you look at the console, every call to filter increments all counters. Ideally you would have a counter that is 0 when it runs the first two times, and 1 when it runs the second two times.

It's possible this is actually a bug and this counter is meant to exist: https://github.com/julmot/mark.js/issues/468
