Subject: [ruby-core:83851] [Ruby trunk Feature#14123] Kernel#pp by default

Issue #14123 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).


Brief background: I talked about `pp` with some people at RubyConf, and all people are tired of writing `require "pp"`.  And then, we reached this simple solution.  Note that we already have a similar trick, as [`Binding#irb`](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/bca966617e4d765c3cfb8cecf1030f1e3c2fb2db/prelude.rb#L138-L143), though I'm unsure if [it is officially accepted or not](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13099).
