[ruby-core:103783] [Ruby master Feature#17856] ary.member? is slower than ary.include?

Issue #17856 has been reported by mame (Yusuke Endoh).

----------------------------------------
Feature #17856: ary.member? is slower than ary.include?
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17856

* Author: mame (Yusuke Endoh)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
`Array#include?` is defined as a faster version of `Enumerable#include?`, but there is no `Array#member?` defined.

```
$ time ruby -e 'a = (0..100000).to_a; 1000.times { a.member?(100000) }'

real    0m1.722s
user    0m1.721s
sys     0m0.000s

$ time ruby -e 'a = (0..100000).to_a; 1000.times { a.include?(100000) }'

real    0m0.524s
user    0m0.523s
sys     0m0.000s
```

I guess this is not intentional. I'll fix this issue unless there is any objection.
