----------------------------------------
I'm running into a couple of issues with Ruby 3's new method cache and
refinements.

The first script raises `SystemStackError` unexpectedly:

```ruby
module R1
  refine Hash do
    def foo; :r1; end
  end
end
class Hash
  prepend(Module.new)
end
class Hash
  def foo; end
end
{}.method(:foo) # put it on pCMC
module R2
  refine Hash do
    def foo; :r2; end
  end
end
{}.foo # SystemStackError
```

The second script calls the wrong method:

```ruby
klass = Class.new { def foo; end }
_refinement = Module.new do
  refine(klass) { def foo; :refined; end }
end
klass.prepend(Module.new)
klass.new.foo # cache foo
klass.define_method(:foo) { :second }
p klass.new.foo # prints nil. False caching.
```

I submitted a GitHub PR to fix the issue: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4386
