/// Return the number of potential cycle roots currently buffered for cycle
/// collection.
///
/// Whenever a `Cc<T>`'s reference count is decremented, it has the possibility
/// of becoming the root of some cycle that is no longer live and can now be
/// reclaimed. These possible roots are buffered for cycle detection and
/// collection at a later point in time. This enables library users to avoid
/// frequent tracing and perform that tracing at a convenient time. Part of
/// choosing a convenient time might be when the number of potential cycle roots
/// reaches some critical threshold. This method allows you to check the current
/// number of possible roots buffered.
