Thanks for your improvemets!
And I'm sorry to bother you, I forgot to adjust arity as https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/482530680c18ea2e44c3300c6f323fabc3bd55f7#diff-f0ac5119f74bfda273347c9925e910d7R226

How do you think?

At first, I felt its better to raise an error as `Array#dig given a non index` and `OpenStruct#dig given a non method name`.
But since I read https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11762, I think returning nil is reasonable when the nested receiver respond to #dig.

Thanks to contain both #dig into Ruby 2.3, I'll enjoy!
