Feature #8499: Importing Hash#slice, Hash#slice!, Hash#except, and Hash#except! from ActiveSupport

----------------------------------------
According to my experiences, the following two idioms often appeare in application codes.

1. `hash = other_hash.select { |k, | [:key1, :key2, :key3].include? k }`
2. `hash = other_hash.reject { |k, | [:key1, :key2, :key3].include? k }`

On Rails, they can be written in the following forms by using ActiveSupport's features.

1. `hash = other_hash.slice(:key1, :key2, :key3)`
2. `hash = other_hash.except(:key1, :key2, :key3)`

I think the latter forms are shorter and more readable than the former ones.

So I propose to import the following methods from ActiveSupport:

* `Hash#slice`
* `Hash#slice!`
* `Hash#except`
* `Hash#except!`
