Description
Since most use-full functionalities from Dir are included in Pathname, I'm surprised that Dir.chdir is not included. As the whole Pathname class is as pleasant facade for File, FileTest, Dir and FileUtils, and working with it should be 'unsurprising', I think the chdir command should also be a part of the Pathname class/
