Clarify that ruby-install does not support installing from rolling releases.
* This is due to ruby-install using ruby-versions to verify the checksums of a downloaded release. Since rolling releases are constantly being updated, oftenly daily, it would be very difficult to maintain an up-to-date list of checksums to verify against. * It is a better long-term strategy, for both ruby-install and end-users, to encourage Ruby implementations to release stable versions and to support installing those.
