Before this commit, const_get with inherit=true and constant lookup
expressions searched the ancestors of the starting point in an order
different from
starting_point.ancestors
.Items in the ancestry list introduced through prepend were
searched after searching the module they were prepended into. This
oddity allowed for situations where constant lookups gave different
results even though
starting_point.ancestors
is the same.Do the lookup in the same order as
starting_point.ancestors
byskipping classes and modules that have an origin iclass. The origin
iclass is in the super chain after the prepended modules.
Note that just like before this commit, the starting point of the
constant lookup is always the first item that we search, regardless of
the presence of any prepended modules.
