     * A camelized string that contains the acronym will maintain the acronym when titleized or humanized, and will
     * convert the acronym into a non-delimited single lowercase word when passed to String#underscore.
     *
     * Examples:
     *   String.Inflector.acronym('HTML')

     * The acronym, however, must occur as a delimited unit and not be part of another word for conversions to recognize it:

     *   String.Inflector.acronym('HTTP')
     *   'my_http_delimited'.camelize() -> 'MyHTTPDelimited'

     *
     *   String.Inflector.acronym('HTTPS')
     *   'https'.camelize()   -> 'HTTPS'
     *   'HTTPS'.underscore() -> 'https'
     *
     * Note: Acronyms that are passed to %pluralize% will no longer be recognized, since the acronym will not occur as
     * a delimited unit in the pluralized result. To work around this, you must specify the pluralized form as an
     * acronym as well:
     *
     *    String.Inflector.acronym('API')
