Subject: [ruby-core:109112] [Ruby master Feature#17753] Add Module#namespace

Issue #17753 has been updated by ioquatix (Samuel Williams).


```ruby
class Class
  def name(offset = nil)
    return super() unless offset

    parts = super().split('::')

    if offset >= 0
        parts = parts[(parts.size - 1 - offset)..-1]
    else
        parts = parts[0...(parts.size + offset)]
    end

    return parts.join('::')
  end
end

module A
    module B
        module C
            class MyClass
            end
        end
    end
end

pp A::B::C::MyClass.name(0) # -> "MyClass"
pp A::B::C::MyClass.name(1) # -> "C::MyClass"
pp A::B::C::MyClass.name(-1) # -> "A::B::C"
pp A::B::C::MyClass.name(-2) # -> "A::B"
```

Something like this.

----------------------------------------
Feature #17753: Add Module#namespace
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17753#change-98259

* Author: tenderlovemaking (Aaron Patterson)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
Given code like this:

```ruby
module A
  module B
    class C; end
    class D; end
  end
end
```

We can get from `C` to `B` like `C.outer_scope`, or to `A` like
`C.outer_scope.outer_scope`.

I want to use this in cases where I don't know the outer scope, but I
want to find constants that are "siblings" of a constant.  For example,
I can do `A::B::C.outer_scope.constants` to find the list of "sibling"
constants to `C`.  I want to use this feature when walking objects and
introspecting.  For example:

```ruby
ObjectSpace.each_object(Class) do |k|
  p siblings: k.outer_scope.constants
end
```

I've attached a patch that implements this feature, and there is a pull request on GitHub [here](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4326).
