Subject: [ruby-core:94728] [Ruby master Feature#15975] Add Array#pluck

Issue #15975 has been updated by knu (Akinori MUSHA).


ActiveSupport has [Enumerable#pluck](https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/Enumerable.html#method-i-pluck), so I don't think we want to diverge from that by adding a method with the same name in Array.

Inspired by https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/20339

While developing web applications I've often wanted to quickly extract an array of values from an array of hashes.

With an array of objects, this is possible:

```rb
irb(main):001:0> require 'ostruct'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> [OpenStruct.new(name: "Lewis")].map(&:name)
=> ["Lewis"]
```

This PR adds Array#pluck allowing this:

```rb
irb(main):001:0> [ {name: "Lewis"} ].pluck(:name)
=> ["Lewis"]
```

without this PR:

```rb
irb(main):001:0> [ {name: "Lewis"} ].map { |item| item[:name] }
=> ["Lewis"]
```

Implemented here:
