Ruby

Hi,

This is a followup issue to #11252. I'd like to add a method that basically does the same thing as NameError#missing_name. This will allow gems like Rails and did_you_mean to get a qualified name without parsing an error message.

begin
  HelloWorld
rescue NameError => e
  error.name           # => :HelloWorld
  error.qualified_name # => :HelloWorld
end

begin
  String::DoesntExist
rescue NameError => e
  error.name           # => :DoesntExist
  error.qualified_name # => :"String::DoesntExist"
end

I'm not actually sure what it should return when the module/class is an anonymous module/class, but one thing we can do is just use the result of #to_s:

m = Module.new

begin
  m::DoesntExist
rescue NameError => e
  error.name           # => :DoesntExist
  error.qualified_name # => :"#<Module:0x0000000260c2f8>::DoesntExist"
end

I'm open to suggestions. Let me know what you think.
