Description

Debian/Ubuntu ships with one supported Ruby version each release, and that's also the Ruby version we've been historically using on these OSes.

However, our packaging still refers to the versioned "ruby2.5" packages and binaries, at no real value.

With the inclusion of Ubuntu Focal (and Debian Bullseye) we'd need to replace all these references by ruby2.7.

However, I'd prefer our packaging being more OS-agnostic, and thus just refer to "ruby" and let the OS figure out what the default ruby is.
