const foo = new Foo();

const parent = new ReferenceContext({ Object });
const referenceContext = new ReferenceContext({ foo }, parent);

parent.count; // 1
referenceContext.count; // 2
referenceContext.ownCount; // 1

referenceContext.has('Object'); // true
referenceContext.hasOwnReference('Object'); // false
referenceContext.hasOwnReference('foo'); // true

referenceContext.exists(Object); // true
referenceContext.own(Object); // false

referenceContext.get('Object'); // Object
referenceContext.get('foo'); // foo

referenceContext.lookup(Object); // "Object"
referenceContext.lookup(foo); // "foo"
