If `#methods` traverse the super class, it includes the methods that
were does `undef` in the subclass.
Before patched:
```terminal
% bin/mruby -e 'p Module.instance_methods - Class.instance_methods'
[]
```
After patched:
```terminal
% bin/mruby -e 'p Module.instance_methods - Class.instance_methods'
[:append_features, :extend_object]
```
The binary sizes (gems are only `mruby-bin-mruby`) are reduced slightly in
my environment than before the introduction of new specifiers/modifiers
(5116789a) with this change.

BTW, I accidentally changed `tasks/toolchains/visualcpp.rake` at #4613,
so I put it back.
Before this patch:
p (class << Object.new.freeze; self end).frozen? #=> false
sc = class << (o=Object.new); self end; o.freeze; p sc.frozen? #=> false
After this patch / Ruby:
p (class << Object.new.freeze; self end).frozen? #=> true
sc = class << (o=Object.new); self end; o.freeze; p sc.frozen? #=> true
We assume meta-programming is less used in embedded environments.
We have moved following methods:
* Kernel module
global_variables, local_variables, singleton_class,
instance_variables, instance_variables_defined?, instance_variable_get,
instance_variable_set, methods, private_methods, public_methods,
protected_methods, singleton_methods, define_singleton_methods
* Module class
class_variables, class_variables_defined?, class_variable_get,
class_variable_set, remove_class_variable, included_modules,
instance_methods, remove_method, method_removed, constants
* Module class methods
constants, nesting
Note:
Following meta-programming methods are kept in the core:
* Module class
alias_method, undef_method, ancestors, const_defined?, const_get,
const_set, remove_const, method_defined?, define_method
* Toplevel object
define_method
`mruby-metaprog` gem is linked by default (specified in default.gembox).
When it is removed, it will save 40KB (stripped:8KB) on x86-64
environment last time I measured.
