ary_discard should not be used as it should be handled by the GC. The
only user of ary_discard is rb_ary_product, which doesn't neeed to use
ary_discard.
The result of String#b is a string with an ASCII_8BIT/BINARY encoding. That encoding is ASCII-compatible and has no byte sequences that are invalid for the encoding. If we know the receiver's code range, we can derive the resulting string's code range without needing to perform a full code range scan.
The `rb_profile_frames` API did not skip the two dummy frames that
each thread has at its beginning. This was unlike `backtrace_each` and
`rb_ec_parcial_backtrace_object`, which do skip them.
This does not seem to be a problem for non-main thread frames,
because both `VM_FRAME_RUBYFRAME_P(cfp)` and
`rb_vm_frame_method_entry(cfp)` are NULL for them.
BUT, on the main thread `VM_FRAME_RUBYFRAME_P(cfp)` was true
and thus the dummy thread was still included in the output of
`rb_profile_frames`.
I've now made `rb_profile_frames` skip this extra frame (like
`backtrace_each` and friends), as well as add a test that asserts
the size and contents of `rb_profile_frames`.
Fixes [Bug #18907] (<https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18907>)
If the RHS has valid encoding, and both strings have the same
encoding, we can use the fast path.
However we need to update the LHS coderange.

The RARRAY_LITERAL_FLAG was added in commit
5871ecf956711fcacad7c03f2aef95115ed25bc4 to improve CoW performance for
array literals by not keeping track of reference counts.
This commit reverts that commit and has an alternate implementation that
is more generic for all frozen arrays. Since frozen arrays cannot be
modified, we don't need to set the RARRAY_SHARED_ROOT_FLAG and we don't
need to do reference counting.
"Pointer" is not what we usually use to describe a selected item.
"Highlight" is a more common word for the scenario so we should use it instead.

The cause was in how Gem::SystemExitException initializes itself. It
didn't pass an exit code to the super method. See the document of
SystemExit.new() for details.
