/**
 * Extend an object's method by running its output through a mutating callback

 *
 * The callback accepts the method's return value and should perform any
 * mutations directly on this value. For this reason, this function will not be
 * effective on methods which return scalar values (numbers, strings, booleans).
 *
 * Care should be taken to extend the correct object – in most cases, a class'
 * prototype will be the desired target of extension, not the class itself.
 *
 * @example
 * extend(Discussion.prototype, 'badges', function(badges) {
 *   // do something with `badges`
 * });
 *
 * @param {Object} object The object that owns the method
 * @param {String} method The name of the method to extend
 * @param {function} callback A callback which mutates the method's output
