Subject: [ruby-core:101647] [Ruby master Bug#17428] Method#inspect bad	output for class methods

Issue #17428 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze).


FWIW, current output on TruffleRuby is:
```
ruby -e 'p String.method(:prepend)'
#<Method: Class(Module)#prepend(*modules) <internal:core> core/module.rb:92>
```
Probably it should show `#<Class:String>` instead of `String` though.

```
#<Method: String(Module).prepend(*)>
```
doesn't seem correct, prepend is not a class method of `Module`, it's an instance method.

Bug #17428: Method#inspect bad output for class methods

```
$ $ ruby -e 'p String.method(:prepend)'
# 2.7.0:
#<Method: String.prepend(*)>
# 3.0.0:
#<Method: #<Class:Object>(Module)#prepend(*)>
```

@jeremyevans found it shows the method as pertaining to one level too high (which is good for objects as we don't want to show the singleton class there, but not for classes).

Probably due to #15608
