[ruby-core:122313] [Ruby Bug#21377] core Set#inspect does not use inherited class name

Issue #21377 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).


It is intended behavior.  Core classes generally do not have different output in subclasses (e.g. Hash, Array, String).

Now that `Set` is a core class, I think it's worth considering for `Set#inspect` to return a string like: `Set[1, 2, 3]`

----------------------------------------
Following #21216, Set#inspect stopped using self.class.name and just uses 'Set' now.

```ruby
class MySet < Set; end
MySet.new.inspect
# before: #<MySet: {}>
# now: #<Set: {}>
```
