Just updating on a few significant changes I've made on master.

* The "rubinius" backtrace style is gone. Nobody used it, and it
offered only marginally more information than the default "jruby"
style. It also exposed a perf regression in class name generation, and
while attempting to improve that regression I decided to just rip out
the "rubinius" style completely.

* rdoc/ri binaries are not shipped, nor is rdoc/ri content. The
content was out of date, and the binaries got replaced by several
third-party tools that install the rdoc gem. We recommend that users
install the rdoc and rdoc-data gems to get full rdoc/ri command-line
support in JRuby if they really want it. The stdlib still contains the
same rdoc/ri stuff that 1.8.7 and 1.9.3 do.

* 1.8.7 stdlib has been updated to latest, and 1.8.7 patchlevel is now
reported as 352.

* 1.9 mode is now based on 1.9.3, with 1.9.3 stdlib. 1.9 version is
reported as 1.9.3 patchlevel 0.

All part of stabilizing toward JRuby 1.7.
