class Module
# Encapsulates the common pattern of:
#
# alias_method :foo_without_feature, :foo
# alias_method :foo, :foo_with_feature
#
# With this, you simply do:
#
# alias_method_chain :foo, :feature
#
# And both aliases are set up for you.
#
# A punctuation is moved to the end on predicates or bang methods.
#
# alias_method_chain :foo?, :feature
#
# generates "foo_without_feature?" method for old one,
# and expects "foo_with_feature?" method for new one.
