* Add same method signature for `Time#prev_year` and `Time#next_year`

Allows pass argument for `Time#prev_year` and `Time#next_year`.

# => ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 0)

* `IO#to_json` now returns the `to_s` representation, rather than
attempting to convert to an array. This fixes a bug where `IO#to_json`
would raise an `IOError` when called on an unreadable object.

This guide does not document their behavior around those days for brevity, but it is enough to say that they do what you would expect. That is, `Date.new(1582, 10, 4).tomorrow` returns `Date.new(1582, 10, 15)` and so on. Please check `test/core_ext/date_ext_test.rb` in the Active Support test suite for expected behavior.

```
`prev_year` is aliased to `last_year`.
##### `prev_month`, `next_month`
In Ruby 1.9 `prev_month` and `next_month` return the date with the same day in the last or next month:
```ruby
d = Date.new(2010, 5, 8) # => Sat, 08 May 2010
d.prev_month # => Thu, 08 Apr 2010
d.next_month # => Tue, 08 Jun 2010
```
If such a day does not exist, the last day of the corresponding month is returned:
```ruby
Date.new(2000, 5, 31).prev_month # => Sun, 30 Apr 2000
Date.new(2000, 3, 31).prev_month # => Tue, 29 Feb 2000

```
`prev_month` is aliased to `last_month`.
##### `prev_quarter`, `next_quarter`
Same as `prev_month` and `next_month`. It returns the date with the same day in the previous or next quarter:
```ruby
t = Time.local(2010, 5, 8) # => Sat, 08 May 2010
t.prev_quarter # => Mon, 08 Feb 2010
t.next_quarter # => Sun, 08 Aug 2010
