Decamelizing a capitalized word gives odd results

Hello,

When decamelizing an upcase word one gets odd results like this:

```js
decamelize('ADDRESS1') === 'addres_s1'
```

Not sure what the logic is in it but I would expect that it returns `address1`

Regards

02What counts as reproducing it

The bar, written down before the run.

expected.reportedFailurecommitted with the case
Symptom
decamelize('ADDRESS1') produces 'addres_s1'; the fix makes it produce 'address1'.
Expression
decamelize('ADDRESS1')
Reported output
'addres_s1'
Where that came from
Proposed by a model reading this report and nothing else -- it never saw the repository or the fix commit -- and read back as a claim by the same parser the harvest uses, SAME_LINE form: `decamelize('ADDRESS1') //=> 'addres_s1'`. The report sat in the CODE_NO_ANNOTATION_AT_ALL bucket, which no regex reaches. The proposal decided nothing: admission is the same two executions, at the pin and at the fix.
