Added String#at, String#from, String#to, String#first, String#last in ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::String::Access to ease access to individual characters and substrings in a string serving basically as human names for range access. Added easy extendability to the inflector through Inflector.inflections (using the Inflector::Inflections singleton class)
