[ruby-core:116764] [Ruby master Bug#20218] aset/masgn/op_asgn with keyword arguments

Issue #20218 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).


> Does this also include blocks?

Yes. @nobu wrote a patch in #19918, so a block will also be prohibited.

Note that keyword arguments and a block are allowed in the normal method call style: `obj.[]=(1, 2, kw: 1, &blk)`.

Bug #20218: aset/masgn/op_asgn with keyword arguments
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20218#change-106787

----------------------------------------
I found that use of keyword arguments in multiple assignment is broken in 3.3 and master:

```ruby
h = {a: 1}
o = []
def o.[]=(*args, **kw)
  replace([args, kw])
end

# This segfaults as RHS argument is not a hash
o[1, a: 1], _ = [1, 2]


# This passes the RHS argument as keywords to the method, treating keyword splat as positional argument
o[1, **h], _ = [{b: 3}, 2]
o
# => [[1, {:a=>1}], {:b=>3}]
```

Before 3.3, keyword arguments were treated as positional arguments.

This is similar to #19918, but for keyword arguments instead of block arguments.

@matz indicated he wanted to prohibit block arguments in aset/masgn and presumably also op_asgn (making them SyntaxErrors).  Can we also prohibit keyword arguments in aset/masgn/op_asgn?

Note that aset treats keyword arguments as regular arguments:

```ruby
o[1, a: 1] = 2
o
# => [[1, {:a=>1}, 2], {}]

o[1, **h] = {b: 3}
o
# => [[1, {:a=>2}, {:b=>3}], {}]
```

While op_asgn treats keyword arguments as keywords:

```ruby
h = {a: 2}
o = []
def o.[](*args, **kw)
  concat([:[], args, kw])
  x = Object.new
  def x.+(v)
    [:x, v]
  end
  x
end
def o.[]=(*args, **kw)
  concat([:[]=, args, kw])
end
o[1, a: 1] += 2
o
# => [:[], [1], {:a=>1}, :[]=, [1, [:x, 2]], {:a=>1}]

o.clear
o[1, **h] += {b: 3}
o
# => [:[], [1], {:a=>2}, :[]=, [1, [:x, {:b=>3}]], {:a=>2}]
```
