New: x11/ruby-tk 0.2.0

ruby <2.4 used to ship with the tk extension, which was built as the -tk
subpackage. Starting in ruby 2.4, they moved the code to a gem, and
they have released occassional improvements since (an earlier version
segfaulted at exit).

After using both ruby-qt3 (x11/kde/bindings3) and ruby-qt4
(x11/kde4/ruby-qt) in the past, I eventually converted my ruby GUI
programs to ruby-tk as the ruby-tk API is simpler and more idiomatic.

Tested on amd64. Can another developer please review and provide an ok
to import?

Thanks,
Jeremy
