/*
* call-seq:
* merge! -> self
* merge!(*other_hashes) -> self
* merge!(*other_hashes) { |key, old_value, new_value| ... } -> self
* update(*other_hashes) -> self
* update(*other_hashes) { |key, old_value, new_value| ... } -> self
*
* Merges each of +other_hashes+ into +self+; returns +self+.
* Like Hash#merge, but modifies and returns +self+ instead of a new hash:
*
* Each argument in +other_hashes+ must be a +Hash+.
* season = {AB: 75, H: 20, HR: 3, SO: 17, W: 11, HBP: 3}
* today = {AB: 3, H: 1, W: 1}
* yesterday = {AB: 4, H: 2, HR: 1}
* season.update(yesterday, today) {|key, old_value, new_value| old_value + new_value }
* # => {AB: 82, H: 23, HR: 4, SO: 17, W: 12, HBP: 3}
*
* With arguments and no block:
* * Returns +self+, after the given hashes are merged into it.
* * The given hashes are merged left to right.
* * Each new entry is added at the end.
* * Each duplicate-key entry's value overwrites the previous value.
*
* Example:
* h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
* h1 = {bat: 3, bar: 4}
* h2 = {bam: 5, bat:6}
* h.merge!(h1, h2) # => {foo: 0, bar: 4, baz: 2, bat: 6, bam: 5}
*
* With arguments and a block:
* * Returns +self+, after the given hashes are merged.
* * The given hashes are merged left to right.
* * Each new-key entry is added at the end.
* * For each duplicate key:
* * Calls the block with the key and the old and new values.
* * The block's return value becomes the new value for the entry.
*
* Example:
* h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
* h1 = {bat: 3, bar: 4}
* h2 = {bam: 5, bat:6}
* h3 = h.merge!(h1, h2) { |key, old_value, new_value| old_value + new_value }
* h3 # => {foo: 0, bar: 5, baz: 2, bat: 9, bam: 5}
*
* With no arguments:
* * Returns +self+, unmodified.
* * The block, if given, is ignored.
*
* Example:
* h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
* h.merge # => {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
* h1 = h.merge! { |key, old_value, new_value| raise 'Cannot happen' }
* h1 # => {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
