public, protected and private should return their arguments instead of self

Added by usa (Usaku NAKAMURA) about 6 years ago. Updated about 6 years ago.

Description

Matsuda-san suggested me that public, protected and private should return their arguments instead of self,
to write such code:

require "finalist"
# see https://github.com/joker1007/finalist

class Foo
  extend Finalist

  final private def foo
  end
end

I believe that it's reasonable request, and also believe that there is no product code which uses the return value of public, protected and private.
Matz, how about this change?
The patch is attached.
