Ruby 3.1.2 Traveling Ruby + Package with 3.1.4

[YOU54F]

Aim

• Use Ruby 3.1.2 traveling-ruby due to errors in 3.2.2 seen in pact_mock-service
• Identify all consumers of pact-ruby-standalone
• Document "Rube Goldberg" machine for
  • Pact Ruby Reference Core as referenced here in the dependency graph of doom
• Update all affected repos
• Test all affected repos

Note:- For full background, multi-repo tracking, see pact-foundation/roadmap#10

Why?

• Users of our pact-ruby-standalone project, have been stuck on a packaged Ruby 2.4 run-time due to the build system traveling-ruby, being out-of-maintainence. It has been revived by your very own Devo Avo, into the 21st century with
  • Update to Ruby 3.1.2 & 3.2.2
  • Support for Arm64 Darwin
  • Support for Aarch64 Linux
  • Support for x86 and x64 windows

What happened?

• pact-ruby-standlaone 2.0.0 was released
• Issues identified by users / maintainers
  • Requirement to install libyaml-dev for debian based users
• Error when writing pact files for pact-go-v1 where users are asked to pin the version of the standalone, but provided a script which returns the latest.

Root cause?

• An error in pact_mock-service was reproducible in CI, when using Ruby 3.2.2
  • Downgrading to Ruby 3.1.2 resolved the issue.

Related issues

• `synchronize': can't be called from trap context (ThreadError) rapid7/metasploit-framework#17593

What is this PR doing?

• Releasing pact-ruby-standalone with ruby 3.1.2
• Updated the release note process so we
  • Provide install support via our script for windows users
  • Provide a more complete autogenerated README, which is committed back to the repo at release time

Closing this as no longer required as we have fixed forward with Ruby 3.2.2

Will pull out some of the other changes separately as there is still some relevant stuff in here (developer docs, user facing docker images)
