Frozen truncate (#36109)

* Add test asserting truncate returns unfrozen string

* Ensure strings returned from truncate are not frozen

This fixes an issue where strings too short to be truncated were
returned unfrozen, where as long-enough strings were returned
frozen. Now retuned strings will not be frozen whether or not
the string returned was shortened.

* Update changelog w/ new truncate behavior description

+*   `truncate` would return the original string if it was too short to be truncated
+    and a frozen string if it were long enough to be truncated. Now truncate will
+    consistently return an unfrozen string regardless. This behavior is consistent
+    with `gsub` and `strip`.
