[ruby-core:106063] [Ruby master Bug#18296] Custom exception formatting should override `Exception#full_message`.

Issue #18296 has been updated by yuki24 (Yuki Nishijima).


While I believe this seems like a good direction, the conversation seems a bit scattered. Could one of you summarize the proposal?

----------------------------------------
After discussing with @eregon, we came to the conclusion that the current implementation of `did_you_mean` and `error_highlight` could avoid many issues by using `Exception#full_message`.

We propose to introduce a more nuanced interface:

```ruby
class Exception
  def full_message(highlight: bool, order: [:top or :bottom], **options)
    # ...
  end
end

module DidYouMean
  module Formatter
    def full_message(highlight:, did_you_mean: true, **options)
      buffer = super(highlight: highlight, **options).dup
      buffer << "extra stuff"
    end
  end
end
Exception.prepend DidYouMean::Formatter

module ErrorHighlight
  module Formatter
    def full_message(highlight:, error_highlight: true, **options)
      # same as above
    end
  end
end
Exception.prepend ErrorHighlight::Formatter
```
