add factory methods for empty alias trackers

If we know the alias tracker is empty, we can create one that doesn't
use a hash with default block for counting.

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(adapter: 'sqlite3',
                                        database: ':memory:')

ActiveRecord::Schema.define do
  create_table :posts, force: true do |t|
    t.integer :comments_count
  end

  create_table :comments, force: true do |t|
    t.integer :post_id
  end
end

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base; has_many :comments; end
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base; belongs_to :post, counter_cache: true; end
10.times { Comment.create!(post: Post.create!) }

record = Post.first
association_name = :comments

Benchmark.ips do |x|
  reflection = record.class.reflect_on_association(association_name)
  association = reflection.association_class.new(record, reflection)
  x.report('assoc') do
    reflection.association_class.new(record, reflection)
  end
  x.report('reader') do
    association.reader;nil
  end
  x.report('combined') do
    reflection.association_class.new(record, reflection).reader;nil
  end
end
