bug: when a count is given to a key through which a module is triggered, the module gets loaded, but the count is forgotten

Did you check docs and existing issues?

• I have read all the lazy docs
• I have searched the existing issues of lazy
• I have searched the exsiting issues of the plugin I have a problem with

Neovim version (nvim -v)

Describe the bug

I was contemplating whether this is a bug or this is a feature that is not supported, but ultimately decided to file it under bug since it can lead to unexpected behavior.

Say we have a plugin that that has a mapping <c-down> to select a word. Doing 5<c-down> selects 5 words. Suppose we want to lazy load this plugin. At the moment, doing something like keys = { { "<c-down>" } } in the plugin definition in lazy does indeed load the plugin, but forgets the count.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create 6 lines with text
2. Position cursor on line 1, column 1
3. Do 5<c-down>

Expected Behavior

Doing 5<c-down> should load the plugin and do 5<c-down>. However, at the moment, the plugin loads, but does <c-down>.

local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({
    "git",
    "clone",
    "--filter=blob:none",
    "--single-branch",
    "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
    lazypath,
  })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)


require("lazy").setup {
    {
        'mg979/vim-visual-multi',
        keys = { { "<c-down>" } },
    },
}
