/**
 * @defgroup  defmethod  Defining methods
 *
 * There are some APIs to define a method from C.
 * These API takes a C function as a method body.
 *
 * ### Method body functions
 *
 * Method body functions must return a VALUE and
 * can be one of the following form:
 *
 * #### Fixed number of parameters
 *
 * This form is a normal C function, excepting it takes
 * a receiver object as the first argument.
 *
 * ```CXX
 * static VALUE my_method(VALUE self, VALUE x, VALUE y);
 * ```
 *
 * #### argc and argv style
 *
 * This form takes three parameters: argc, argv and self.
 * self is the receiver. argc is the number of arguments.
 * argv is a pointer to an array of the arguments.
 *
 * ```CXX
 * static VALUE my_method(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self);
 * ```
 *
 * #### Ruby array style
 *
 * This form takes two parameters: self and args.
 * self is the receiver. args is an Array object which
 * contains the arguments.
 *
 * ```CXX
 * static VALUE my_method(VALUE self, VALUE args);
 * ```
 *
 * ### Number of parameters
 *
 * Method defining APIs takes the number of parameters which the
 * method will takes. This number is called argc.
 * argc can be:
 *
 *   - Zero or positive number.
 *     This means the method body function takes a fixed number of parameters.
 *
 *   - `-1`.
 *     This means the method body function is "argc and argv" style.
 *
 *   - `-2`.
 *     This means the method body function is "self and args" style.

/**
 * Defines an undef of a method.  -- What?
 *
 * In ruby, there are two separate concepts called "undef" and "remove_method".
 * The thing you imagine when you  "un-define" a method is remove_method.  This
 * one on the  other hand is masking of a  previous method definition.  Suppose
 * for instance:
 *
 * ```ruby
 * class Foo
 *   def foo
 *   end
 * end
 *
 * class Bar < Foo
 *   def bar
 *     foo
 *   end
 * end
 *
 * class Baz < Foo
 *   undef foo            # <--- (*1)
 * end
 * ```
 *
 * This `undef foo` at `(*1)` must not eliminate `Foo#foo`, because that method
 * is also used from `Bar#bar`.  So  instead of physically executing the target
 * method, `undef` inserts  a special filtering entry to the  class (`Baz` this
 * case).  That entry,  when called, acts as  if there were no  methods at all.
 * But the original can still be accessible, via ways like `Bar#bar` above.
 *
 * @param[out]  klass            The class to insert an undef.
 * @param[in]   name             Name of the undef.
 * @exception   rb_eTypeError    `klass` is a non-module.
 * @exception   rb_eFrozenError  `klass` is frozen.
 * @see         rb_remove_method
