 something like option=layers which would print out only layer numbers, one
 per line. This would be fast if topology is available because in this case
 the internal category index can be used and the vector map would need to
 be opened with head only. Without topology, option=layers would print
 nothing.

 I have backported the v.category part in r55142-3.
