Misc #21325: make ruby more middle-aged man friendly

----------------------------------------
after 35, I lose all interests about programming.
no linux, no vim, no iterm2, and no much much.
when I want to format a ruby time to string.
I will try `Time.now.format("yy-MM-dd")`,
but I get `private method 'format' called for an instance of Time`
ohh, I google `ruby time format`,
then I get `strftime`,
I know this is from c standard library.
answer me, looking my eyes. why? baby why?
why I have to use c style method with ruby in 2025.
format is the first choose when we not familiar with `Time` class,
so, `format` is private, so we can rename it to `_format`,
and make `format` a copy of `strftime` and deprecate the old one,
