[ruby-core:111513] Re: Data support for versions before 3.2.0

My go-to answer to the question always was backports gem:
https://github.com/marcandre/backports

Sadly, it is not updated for 3.2 (seems that the primary maintainer is not
very active online lately), but I actually plan to provide the PR in some
upcoming weeks.

Another option to look into is polyfils/transpiler gem
https://github.com/ruby-next/ruby-next... which isn't updated for 3.2
either :(
