Description

This PR adds a new term entry for the bucket_count() method under C++ unordered_set. The entry documents the syntax, parameters, return value, and includes comprehensive examples demonstrating basic usage, bucket growth monitoring, and hash distribution analysis with a runnable codebyte.

The entry follows the established pattern from unordered-map/bucket-count but adapted for set semantics (elements hashed directly, not key-value pairs). All examples use practical scenarios like tracking programming languages and colors to illustrate bucket allocation strategies.

New term entry: content/cpp/concepts/unordered-set/terms/bucket-count/bucket-count.md

  • Syntax and return type documentation
  • Two examples: basic usage and monitoring bucket growth during insertions
  • Runnable codebyte demonstrating hash distribution analysis across buckets
  • FAQ covering differences from size(), performance implications, and rehashing behavior

Updated the documentation for 'bucket_count()' to clarify its purpose and relationship with performance. Removed the FAQs section for conciseness.
