Bug #20808: Cannot override Data#inspect
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20808#change-110198

* Author: maicolben (Maicol Bentancor)
* Status: Open
* ruby -v: 3.3.5
* Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
Given the next code:
```
Dog = Data.define(:name) do
  def inspect
    "Hello!"
  end

  private
  attr_reader :name
end

Dog.new(name: "Fido")
```

It throws an error:
- An error occurred when inspecting the object: #<NoMethodError: private method `name' called for an instance of Dog> 

And isn't using my `inspect` function
