/**
* ### .overwriteChainableMethod(ctx, name, method, chainingBehavior)
*
* Overwrites an already existing chainable method
* and provides access to the previous function or
* property. Must return functions to be used for
* name.
*
* utils.overwriteChainableMethod(chai.Assertion.prototype, 'lengthOf',
* function (_super) {
* }
* , function (_super) {
* }
* );
*
* Can also be accessed directly from `chai.Assertion`.
*
* chai.Assertion.overwriteChainableMethod('foo', fn, fn);
*
* Then can be used as any other assertion.
*
* expect(myFoo).to.have.lengthOf(3);
* expect(myFoo).to.have.lengthOf.above(3);
*
* @param {Object} ctx object whose method / property is to be overwritten
* @param {String} name of method / property to overwrite
* @param {Function} method function that returns a function to be used for name
* @param {Function} chainingBehavior function that returns a function to be used for property
* @namespace Utils
* @name overwriteChainableMethod
