[DRE-maint] Bug#744016: Improve dh_ruby for language binding packages

Package: gem2deb
Severity: wishlist

Russ Allbery noticed that dh_ruby expects to be the top-level build
system in dh7, which means that while it can be used for packages
that use another primary buildsystem (i.e. autoconf), it's extra
work (see #743991 for details).

In particular:
 - dh_ruby doesn't run through dh_auto_install
 - XB-Ruby-Versions doesn't get added automatically

Also it'd be nice to automatically hook dh_ruby in if there was a
ruby/extconf.rb and similar files. (Wouldn't help for remctl, but
still.)
