Jeremy Evans a82a24ed57 Optimize method_missing calls
CALLER_ARG_SPLAT is not necessary for method_missing.  We just need
to unshift the method name into the arguments.

This optimizes all method_missing calls:

* mm(recv) ~9%
* mm(recv, *args) ~215% for args.length == 200
* mm(recv, *args, **kw) ~55% for args.length == 200
* mm(recv, **kw) ~22%
* mm(recv, kw: 1) ~100%

Note that empty argument splats do get slower with this approach,
by about 30-40%.  Other than non-empty argument splats, other
argument splats are faster, with the speedup depending on the
number of arguments.

What is Ruby?

Ruby is an interpreted object-oriented programming language often used for web development. It also offers many scripting features to process plain text and serialized files, or manage system tasks. It is simple, straightforward, and extensible.

Features of Ruby

  • Simple Syntax
  • Normal Object-oriented Features (e.g. class, method calls)
  • Advanced Object-oriented Features (e.g. mix-in, singleton-method)
  • Operator Overloading
  • Exception Handling
  • Iterators and Closures
  • Garbage Collection
  • Dynamic Loading of Object Files (on some architectures)
  • Highly Portable (works on many Unix-like/POSIX compatible platforms as well as Windows, macOS, etc.) cf. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/doc/maintainers.md#platform-maintainers
