Computes the difference of this bag with another bag. The difference of these two bags is all items that appear in this bag, but not in otherBag. If an item appears X times in this bag, and Y times in the other bag, the difference contains the item X - Y times (zero times if Y >= X). This bag receives the difference of the two bags; the other bag is unchanged.
