ruby.bbclass: introduce a class to assist in building gems
In order to allow the building of gems we have created a ruby.bbclass. The building of gems is much like the building of python packages in that we rely on building up -native gems in order to facilitate the cross compiling of the gems that will be built for the target. When dependencies exist between gems they must be satisfied by the -native gems installed in the host sysroot. This approach is feasible since the build process is able to query installed gems without being affected by the ARCH they were built for. At this point I have yet to come across a situation where the assumption associated with this approach have failed but so far focus has only been on x86 and x86-64 builds. The recipes which inherit the ruby.bbclass can optionally define a BPV in the case where the gemspec version doesn't always map 1:1 to the PV. This situation has only been encountered on a few occasions so the class has been made to default BPV to PV. To demonstrate the ruby.bbclass in use we have included a recipe to build the bundler gem. Bundler can be used on a running target to install gems from rubygems.org, which can be useful in itself when you don't have recipes available for gems but want to try installing and running pre-built gems.

1SUMMARY = "Makes sure Ruby applications run the same code on every machine."
2DESCRIPTION = "Bundler makes sure Ruby applications run the same code \
3on every machine. It does this by managing the gems that the \
4application depends on. Given a list of gems, it can automatically \
5download and install those gems, as well as any other gems needed by \
6the gems that are listed. Before installing gems, it checks the \
7versions of every gem to make sure that they are compatible, and can \
8all be loaded at the same time. After the gems have been installed, \
9Bundler can help you update some or all of them when new versions \
10become available. Finally, it records the exact versions that have \
11been installed, so that others can install the exact same gems."
