* remove EOL ruby versions for security and maintenance reasons.
* only expose ruby_MAJOR_MINOR to the top-level. we don't provide
guarantees for the TINY version.
* mark all related packages as broken
* switch the default ruby version from 2.3.x to 2.4.x
Fixes a number of CVEs:
- a DNS request hijacking vulnerability. (CVE-2017-0902)
- an ANSI escape sequence vulnerability. (CVE-2017-0899)
- a DoS vulnerability in the query command. (CVE-2017-0900)
- a vulnerability in the gem installer that allowed a malicious gem to overwrite arbitrary files. (CVE-2017-0901)
* Manage patches in git
* Fixes the hook invocation to be more safe. Thanks @Mic92
* Install gems as user by default
* Install gem binaries with the /usr/bin/env shebang
* Fixes a bug where the passthru.libPath and passthru.gemPath would
point to the wrong directory
* Overhaul ruby version heuristics
