[ruby-core:102902] [Ruby master Feature#17684] Remove `--disable-gems` from release version of Ruby

Issue #17684 has been updated by naruse (Yui NARUSE).


At this time we just update `--help`.
The conclusion of ruby core's discussion is
* As the first step, let’s update the --help to explicitly state that --disable-gems is just for debugging
* If rubygems startup becomes so fast in future, we can consider removal of --disable-gems (but still it is desirable for debugging)
* Or someone who happen to report about --disable-gems again, we will consider again.

We also discuss RubyGem accesses too many files in startup. We expect gem team improve that.

Feature #17684: Remove `--disable-gems` from release version of Ruby
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17684#change-90964

* Author: hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA)
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
In my understand, `--disable-gems` is only debugging feature for ruby-core team.

But some users enabled its option in test environment for performance or etc. So, `--disable-gems` option is wrong usage for some users.

* https://github.com/rubygems/bundler/issues/7487#issuecomment-569901549
* https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/pull/4440#issue-587031184

We should remove it from package version of ruby.
