Adds specs for Method#original_name and #inspect when define_method or alias is used with Kernel#is_a? / Kernel#kind_of? methods that can share an internal implementation in some Ruby implementations. Existing specs didn't catch when introspection leaked the shared internal name.

Fix Method#original_name and #inspect when two methods share a wrapper (like is_a?/kind_of?) Introduce sourceName on DynamicMethod to preserve a method's source name when methods share a single underlying wrapper. Set it in RubyModule when binding, walk the alias chain in AliasMethod#getOldName to reach it, and consult it from Method#original_name and #inspect so both report the correct source name instead of whichever name happened to live on the wrapper. Covered by new specs in ruby/spec#1356 (ruby/spec#1356).

This looks fine to me and fills a gap in specs.

Actually, two small changes here would clean this up and we can merge.
| it "shows the original name in parentheses for an aliased method" do | ||
| klass = Class.new do | ||
| def original_method; end | ||
| alias_method :renamed_is_a?, :original_method |

Seems like "is_a?" is irrelevant and confusing here.

Also here: is_a? is not relevant for this particular case, probably copied from other cases that actually do alias is_a?.

Adds specs for Method#original_name and #inspect when define_method or alias is used with Kernel#is_a? / Kernel#kind_of? methods that can share an internal implementation in some Ruby implementations. Existing specs didn't catch when introspection leaked the shared internal name.
Also documents inspect's behavior on aliased methods, which wasn't previously covered.
Continuing the work started in #1353 and adding specs that fail at least on JRuby. (the specs added in that PR now pass on JRuby master though!)
