Clarify why the `jruby =` option is not recommended

This Gradle plugin has the jruby = option to configure which JRuby to use (note: planned to move in #32), but the option is actually "not recommended".

The reason should be clarified. Roughly speaking, it's because how to call JRuby and gem can be different per version. For example,

  • The versions of embedded gem can be different per JRuby version.
  • The command line options of gem can be different. (E.g. RubyGems 3.0+ newly has the --otp option.)
  • ...

A version of this Gradle plugin would basically expect a fixed corresponding JRuby version. This jruby = option is here just for a quick hack and debugging.
