Package: org.gmetrics.metric.coupling

## [Groovy] Class EfferentCouplingReferenceManager

- org.gmetrics.metric.coupling.EfferentCouplingReferenceManager

- Maintains a mapping of packageName -> packages it references, as well as a reference to a MetricResult for the associated PackageResultsNode. As this object is updated with subsequent package references, the MetricResult is updated as well. So, the MetricResult for a PackageResultNode is not "complete" until all of the packages have been processed.
