Class.new's internal method becomes the method of the class to which the method belongs

[gemmaro]

The methods owned by the dynamically generated class inside the method are defined as the methods of the class outside of it.
The explanation is a bit complicated, so please see the example.

aaa.rb:

class AAA
  def bbb
    Class.new do
      def ccc; end
    end
  end
end

$ rdoc aaa.rb

There are both bbb and ccc as Public Instance Methods of class AAA.

$ rdoc --version
6.3.1

$ ruby --version
ruby 3.0.1p64 (2021-04-05 revision 0fb782ee38) [x86_64-darwin20]

Thank you.

Fixed in #1581
Method definition in a block is different from method definition outside of a block because self might be changed and unknown. RDoc now correctly ignores it.
