* Add missing space for `String#start_with?`.
* Add missing pluses for `String#tr` and
`Methods for Converting to New String` label.
* Move quote into the tag for `Whitespace in Strings` label.
The chart (https://www.unicode.org/charts/case) that is currently
referred seems to be wrong.
Also, use the "latest" redirect and add titles of the section and table.
[Bug #18590]
The `capstone` crate on crates.io does not need `libcapstone` on the system
because it builds from [source].
`gdbm` is now a separate gem (thanks for extracting it!).
[source]: c31409905a/capstone-sys/build.rs (L143)
In December 2021, we opened an [issue] to solicit feedback regarding the
porting of the YJIT codebase from C99 to Rust. There were some
reservations, but this project was given the go ahead by Ruby core
developers and Matz. Since then, we have successfully completed the port
of YJIT to Rust.
The new Rust version of YJIT has reached parity with the C version, in
that it passes all the CRuby tests, is able to run all of the YJIT
benchmarks, and performs similarly to the C version (because it works
the same way and largely generates the same machine code). We've even
incorporated some design improvements, such as a more fine-grained
constant invalidation mechanism which we expect will make a big
difference in Ruby on Rails applications.
Because we want to be careful, YJIT is guarded behind a configure
option:
```shell
./configure --enable-yjit # Build YJIT in release mode
./configure --enable-yjit=dev # Build YJIT in dev/debug mode
```
By default, YJIT does not get compiled and cargo/rustc is not required.
If YJIT is built in dev mode, then `cargo` is used to fetch development
dependencies, but when building in release, `cargo` is not required,
only `rustc`. At the moment YJIT requires Rust 1.60.0 or newer.
The YJIT command-line options remain mostly unchanged, and more details
about the build process are documented in `doc/yjit/yjit.md`.
The CI tests have been updated and do not take any more resources than
before.
The development history of the Rust port is available at the following
commit for interested parties:
1fd9573d8b
Our hope is that Rust YJIT will be compiled and included as a part of
system packages and compiled binaries of the Ruby 3.2 release. We do not
anticipate any major problems as Rust is well supported on every
platform which YJIT supports, but to make sure that this process works
smoothly, we would like to reach out to those who take care of building
systems packages before the 3.2 release is shipped and resolve any
issues that may come up.

Also, in regexp.rdoc:
Changes heading from 'Special Global Variables' to 'Regexp Global Variables'.
Add tiny section 'Regexp Interpolation'.
Adds to doc for String.new, also making it compliant with documentation_guide.rdoc.
Fixes some broken links in io.c (that I failed to correct yesterday).
