Array#extract_if

A handy Array method that essentially finds and removes an item from an array in one go - returning that item. Surprisingly no core methods (delete drop etc) does this, nor does activesupport provide it.

Ruby on its own already has this (Array#reject!) :

@links.reject!{ link link.match /wikipedia.com/ }
