[ruby-core:93945] [Ruby master Bug#16026] `Set#count` performance issues

Issue #16026 has been updated by Hanmac (Hans Mackowiak).


technically `Set#count` comes from `Enumerable`, where it has support for this too

```
enum.count(item)           -> int
enum.count { |obj| block } -> int
```

so i don't think Set should make `#count` work like `#size`

`Set#size` is O(1), but `Set#count` is O(N).

I would like to add `alias count size` to `class Set`

Is it okay?
