Rubinius will raise a TypeError, should you try String.dup, whereas MRI has no problem with it. As such, this change marks String as un- duplicable with respect to ActiveSupports' #duplicable? method, used by #deep_dup. Since this change isn't in upstream ActiveSupport, I also forced the backport to always be loaded (this could be changed to just a monkeypatch of the String class, though).

This addresses #873 by preventing ActiveSupport#deep_dup from trying to duplicate the String class (note: I mean strictly the String class, not String instances). However, there are a few points to consider:
