   * Count the multiplicity of an element in a multiset.

   * Syntax:

   *    math.setMultiplicity(element, set)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.setMultiplicity(1, [1, 2, 2, 4]);    // returns 1
   *    math.setMultiplicity(2, [1, 2, 2, 4]);    // returns 2

   *
   *    setDistinct, setSize
   *
   * @param {number | BigNumber | Fraction | Complex} e  An element in the multiset
   * @param {Array | Matrix}     a  A multiset
   * @return {number}            The number of how many times the multiset contains the element
