Also, rename the existing updater to `update-ruby` to allow using as
a fallback. It will eventually be removed.

The Telepathy formulae are being shipped off to the boneyard.
1) The number of downloads per formula in terms of Bottles is less than 30 in
the space of 3 months.
2) Two of them were moved onto development releases in November and nobody noticed.
3) telepathy-gabble's executable has been broken since submission and nobody noticed.
4) Making telepathy-gabble's executable function requires significant changes to
d-bus, including enforcing a mandatory X11 dependency on telepathy-gabble users.
5) It's not particularly simple to write tests for the formulae which means they're
more likely to break without CI noticing.

We execute too many `git fetch` at once for this to be useful. Just let
them fail instead and make it up to users to setup username/password
caching or SSH agents.
To avoid extra work on the part of contributors and maintainers, this
adds a step to the explanation of how to contribute a fix to a formula,
showing how to check if someone else has already done so, even if it
has not yet finished being tested, reviewed, and released.

Homebrew developers have the corresponding variable permanently set in
their environment and wanting to appear like a Homebrew developer for a
single invocation is exceedingly rare. Additionally, the option won't be
recognized by `bin/brew`. (It is also undocumented.)
Using `HOMEBREW_DEVELOPER=1 brew <command>` is still possible, and not
more inconvenient than passing the `--homebrew-developer` option.
