--[[
Combine named-and-numbered arguments into a pretty list.
"Named-and-numbered" means foo, foo0, foo_1, foo234: anything that matches foo_?%d+

Arguments:
  args[1] = name to search arguments
  rest of args = arguments to search
Returns:
  Pretty list, in order of argument number.
  "foo" comes first, then "foo0", "foo1", ... "fooN"
  The argument numbering does not have to be sequential
  
  If number of args that match <= args[_limit] (4 default),
     returns text list of the form "A, B, C and D"
  otherwise returns collapsible list ({{clist}})
