Pattern occurrence count
Count how many times a pattern occurs in a text when overlapping occurrences count separately. The pattern is non-empty; either string may otherwise be anything. For example, 'aa' occurs 4 times in 'aaaaa' (starting at indexes 0, 1, 2, and 3), and 'aba' occurs 3 times in 'abababa'.

State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
