[ruby-core:97587] [Ruby master Bug#16736] Prepending blank module breaks super call in aliased method

Issue #16736 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).

Backport changed from 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN to 2.5: DONTNEED, 2.6: DONTNEED, 2.7: REQUIRED

This is due to the origin pointers on the module iclasses being incorrectly set to the module's origin instead of the iclass origin.  Setting the origin pointers correctly requires using a stack, as the origin iclasses are created after the iclasses themselves.  I already did part of the work in the prepend patch in #9573.  I've merged the necessary parts of the prepend patch locally and am running tests now.  Assuming no errors I'll submit a pull request.

Here is the test script:

```
class A
  def key
    ["some_key"]
  end
end

module M
  prepend Module.new

  def self.included(base)
    base.alias_method :base_key, :key
  end

  def key
    super + ["new_key"]
  end

  def generate
    base_key
  end
end

class B < A
  include M
end

x = B.new
p x.generate

```

In Ruby 2.7 I get the following error:

```
Traceback (most recent call last):
	2: from test.rb:28:in `<main>'
	1: from test.rb:19:in `generate'
test.rb:15:in `key': super: no superclass method `key' for #<B:0x00007fbc1704d028> (NoMethodError)
```

If I remove the `prepend Module.new` line or switch to Ruby 2.6, I get the expected result:

```
["some_key", "new_key"]
```
