[ruby-core:44286] [ruby-trunk - Feature #1873] MatchData#[]: Omits All But Last Captures Corresponding to the Same Named Group

Issue #1873 has been updated by erikh (Erik Hollensbe).

File re_all_values.patch.gz added

I've attached a new patch -- this implements the same functionality but refers to it as `all_values` and reverts the old changes to `values_at`. This is fundamentally the same functionality as `values_at` with the overridden functionality described in the ticket.

Sorry for the latency on this, it's been a crazy few years. :)

Tests pass, including the new ones.

=begin
 I suspect that MatchData#[:symbol] should return an Array of values when the same named group has been matched multiple times.
 
   >> m = 'food'.match(/(?<f>oo)(?<f>d)/)
   => #<MatchData "ood" f:"oo" f:"d">
   >> m[:f]
   => "d"
   >> m.to_a
   => ["ood", "oo", "d"]
=end
