Building on https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9042, this pull request adds the magic comment # -*- immutable: string -*- that implies .freeze on every string literal in the file. To get a mutable string in a file that starts with the magic comment, use String.new or ''.dup.

Here is a corresponding github pull request:
