What are the supported Ruby version on the ruby_parser?

[DamirSvrtan]

Hi! 👋 I was wondering what were the supported versions of Ruby for the ruby_parser project?

The fasterer project depends on the Ruby parser and the travis CI build has been failing on ruby versions 1.9.3 and 2.0.0 since the latest version of the ruby parser gem 3.14.0.

I saw in the history file that there is some drop of support for 1.8.x and 1.9.x., but i was wondering if there's somewhere where I could find out explicitly which versions are supported?

To be clear, I have no issues dropping support for those older versions. Btw the errors can be seen here.

I dropped 1.8 and 1.9 for parsing and put them in the ruby_parser-legacy gem. You can add that dependency, require it, and they should work again.

As far as runtime goes, yeah. I've only been testing against ruby 2.4 and up (the supported ruby lines) but recently that caused problems with my minitest gem and had to go back down to 2.2. For to_h errors you'd definitely need a ruby 2.1 and higher. I'll add metadata to the gem to be more explicit.

Thanks @zenspider, adding metadata would be great! Thanks for the detailed explanation! Lemme know when it's done or I can open a PR as well - whatever's easier for you!
