Inserts the given +other_string+ into +self+; returns +self+.

If the given +index+ is non-negative, inserts +other_string+ at offset +index+:

  'foo'.insert(0, 'bar')       # => "barfoo"
  'foo'.insert(1, 'bar')       # => "fbaroo"
  'foo'.insert(3, 'bar')       # => "foobar"
  'тест'.insert(2, 'bar')      # => "теbarст"  # Characters, not bytes.
  'こんにちは'.insert(2, 'bar') # => "こんbarにちは"

If the +index+ is negative, counts backward from the end of +self+
and inserts +other_string+ _after_ the offset:

  'foo'.insert(-2, 'bar') # => "fobaro"
