    Added global counter for AbstractMultiValuedMap and his subclasses.

    This commit add new field called globalCounter which represents runtime 
global counter for class es which extending AbstractMultiValuedMap. It improves 
current method size() time complexity from O(n) to O(1), But there are some 
problems with tests. Current version passes 355 on 358 tests. Two of failed 
tests are based on concept that value collection which we get from getMap() 
method is binded with size() method. In other words if you put value to that 
collection a global counter should be increased. For being honest this is 
completely unintelligibly. Why separate collection with own counter should 
increase size of mother map? Third failed test is a problem with serialization. 
Map with counter don't deserialize properly - changes type of inner class from 
GlobalCounterBindedMap to HashMap. I have no hope that this commit will be 
merged due to failed tests but honestly i have no idea how can i solve this 
problems. Maybe someone from community find a way to fix it.
