Full rewrite of lang/ruby port module documentation
Restructure so that the most important information is first. Describe how it modifies bsd.port.mk variables. Document all public variables set by the module. Rewrite prompted by feedback from schwarze@ Multiple rounds of review and many fixes from schwarze@ OK schwarze@
