Constrains N, the number of distinct values assigned to Collection to satisfy the relation N Rel Limit.
Rel can be one of #>, #>=, #<, #=<, #=, #\= (or equivalently, >, >=, <, =<, =, \=).
Any input variables which are not already domain variable will be turned into domain variables with default bounds.
This constraint can be embedded in a constraint expression in its functional form (without the last argument).
This constraint is also known as nvalues in the global constraint catalog. It is implemented by Gecode's nvalue() constraint.
