Recommend ruby/setup-ruby's bundler-cache: true option

Manually caching gems has many issues:
* Not working if there is no Gemfile.lock but only a Gemfile
* Not having the OS version in the key, which might cause binary incompatibility with system libraries of different ABI version.
* Not taking the Ruby version in account.
* Not taking the Ruby ABI version of development builds into accounts, which cannot be done with a key, but needs the commit hash.
* Using restore-keys would grow the cache over time and have extra gems in the cache.
* Those reasons are summarized in https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-ruby-jruby-and-truffleruby#caching-bundle-install-manually

## Ruby - Bundler
```yaml
- uses: actions/cache@v2
with:
path: vendor/bundle
key: ${{ runner.os }}-gems-${{ hashFiles('**/Gemfile.lock') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-gems-
```
When dependencies are installed later in the workflow, we must specify the same path for the bundler.
Caching gems with Bundler correctly is not trivial and just using `actions/cache`
is [not enough](https://github.com/ruby/setup-ruby#caching-bundle-install-manually).
Instead, it is recommended to use `ruby/setup-ruby`'s
[`bundler-cache: true` option](https://github.com/ruby/setup-ruby#caching-bundle-install-automatically)
whenever possible:
```yaml
- name: Bundle install
run: |
bundle config path vendor/bundle
bundle install --jobs 4 --retry 3
- uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1
with:
ruby-version: ...
bundler-cache: true
```
