gnu: ruby-anystyle: Initialize dictionary files.
For the GDBM and Marshal dictionary adapters to be useful with their
default settings, we must initialize their data files during the package
build: upstream would initialize them lazily, but that doesn't work with
an immutable installation directory (at least, not without more complex
patches). Otherwise, we would always end up rebuilding the dictionary at
startup, which is “slow” and “not recommended”.

* gnu/packages/patches/ruby-anystyle-fix-dictionary-populate.patch: New
patch.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/ruby.scm (ruby-anystyle)[patches]: Use it.
[arguments]<#:phases>: Add 'populate-dictionaries' phase.
