nix-shell for Ruby

WIP

What is it?

A nix-shell template to setup a Ruby development environment with direnv integration (if installed).

Built gathering inspiration from several sources, it makes available:

• unstable.ruby_3_0
• unstable.rubyPackages.solargraph (LSP)
• environment opinions:
  • several environment variables are set
  • Gemfile is created (for solargraph to launch)
  • gems are installed locally (in project folder)
  • ...
