Add variation_count on classes
Count how many "variations" each class creates. A "variation" is a a unique ordering of instance variables on a particular class. This can also be thought of as a branch in the shape tree. For example, the following Foo class will have 2 variations: ```ruby class Foo ; end Foo.new.instance_variable_set(:@a, 1) # case 1: creates one variation Foo.new.instance_variable_set(:@b, 1) # case 2: creates another variation foo = Foo.new foo.instance_variable_set(:@a, 1) # does not create a new variation foo.instance_variable_set(:@b, 1) # does not create a new variation (a continuation of the variation in case 1) ``` We will use this number to limit the amount of shapes that a class can create and fallback to using a hash iv lookup.
