Bug #15498: Update Refinements documentation

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: -
• Target version: -
• Backport: 2.4: DONTNEED, 2.5: DONTNEED, 2.6: DONE

[palkan (Vladimir Dementyev)]

The current documentation still states:

When using indirect method access such as Kernel#send, Kernel#method or Kernel#respond_to? refinements are not honored for the caller context during method lookup.

#public_send, #respond_to? support has been added in 2.6.0 (https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15327, https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15326), #send worked before (should we update the docs for 2.5.x then?).
