[PATCH] minor doc updates

[Eric Wong]

Ruby version changes, dropping Rubinius and MRI 1.8 support,
and clarifying a few other things.

we've always used as the style is probably better known than K&R
nowadays (and we do try to track Linux kernel changes (and
email-oriented development style) closely).
