    # MethodReader allows you to access keys of the hash
    # via method calls. This gives you an OStruct like way
    # to access your hash's keys. It will recognize keys
    # either as strings or symbols.
    #
    # Note that while nil keys will be returned as nil,
    # undefined keys will raise NoMethodErrors. Also note that
    # #respond_to? has been patched to appropriately recognize
    # key methods.
    #
    # @example
    #   class User < Hash
    #     include Hashie::Extensions::MethodReader
    #   end
    #
    #   user = User.new
    #   user['first_name'] = 'Michael'
    #   user.first_name # => 'Michael'
    #
    #   user[:last_name] = 'Bleigh'
    #   user.last_name # => 'Bleigh'
    #
    #   user[:birthday] = nil
    #   user.birthday # => nil
    #
    #   user.not_declared # => NoMethodError

    # MethodWriter gives you #key_name= shortcuts for
    # writing to your hash. Keys are written as strings,
    # override #convert_key if you would like to have symbols
    # or something else.
    #
    # Note that MethodWriter also overrides #respond_to such
    # that any #method_name= will respond appropriately as true.
    #
    # @example
    #   class MyHash < Hash
    #     include Hashie::Extensions::MethodWriter
    #   end
    #
    #   h = MyHash.new
    #   h.awesome = 'sauce'

    # MethodQuery gives you the ability to check for the truthiness
    # of a key via method calls. Note that it will return false if
    # the key is set to a non-truthful value, not if the key isn't
    # set at all. Use #key? for checking if a key has been set.
    #
    # MethodQuery will check against both string and symbol names
    # of the method for existing keys. It also patches #respond_to
    # to appropriately detect the query methods.
    #
    # @example
    #   class MyHash < Hash
    #     include Hashie::Extensions::MethodQuery
    #   end
    #
    #   h = MyHash.new
    #   h['abc'] = 123
    #   h.abc? # => true
    #   h['def'] = nil
    #   h.def? # => false
