1 - It's Nova 5.2 beta not 5.1
2 - Dynamic badges are a Nova feature and nothing to do with Android O which is using dots not dynamic badges.
Please actually either do some research or learn to proofread.
I hope they add this feature at some point. Long pressing on an icon to see the associated notification.
