#' Get cells per region
#'
#' Counts how often each element of the provided subdimension exists in the given
#' data set. Originally created to count the number of cells in a region (this
#' is also where its name originates from) it can now be used to count elements
#' of any subdimension via the dim argument.
#'
#' @param x MAgPIE object or a resolution written as numeric (currently only
#' data for 0.5 degree resolution is available).
#' @param dim Dimension for which the items should be returned. Either number or
#' name of dimension or a vector of these (in case of a vector all subimensions
#' must belong to the same main dimension!). See \code{\link{dimCode}} for more details.
