[ruby-core:105271] [Ruby master Feature#18159] Integrate functionality of dead_end gem into Ruby

Issue #18159 has been updated by schneems (Richard Schneeman).


I've made a draft PR with a working spike of getting this into Ruby. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4845 it should be good enough for discussion. I used the same interface you suggested here. It was very easy. 

The only limitation of my approach is listed in the PR (`dead_end` hooks into `require` so will not fire in every context). But I believe we can work through this limitation.

I invite anyone to try out this branch or to include `dead_end` in their own gem in their own codebases.

Please let me know how the meeting goes.

----------------------------------------
Missing 'end' errors are difficult to fix. We should integrate the functionality of the dead_end gem (https://github.com/zombocom/dead_end) into Ruby similar to how we integrated did_you_mean. It would greatly help programming Ruby, in particular for beginners.
