Summary

The "target version" notes in README.md and docs/CONTRIBUTING.md still referred to Ruby 3.1 / 3.2 (dated 2022/2023). This refreshes them:

  • Update the version numbers to the latest release (4.0, >= 3.3 for non-EOL, as of 2026).
  • Link "latest release of Ruby" / "non-EOL versions of Ruby" to the official Ruby branches page so the supported versions stay verifiable instead of going stale.
  • Note in CONTRIBUTING.md that the CI matrix currently still retains Ruby 3.2.

Test plan

  • Documentation-only change; no code affected.
