Version 0.0.9 gemini breaking changes

This new version changes the Gemini namespace. Everything is now under the same Net::Gemini namespace. If you just used this gem as per the documentation, nothing changes for you. However, if you were using some hidden part of the Gemini API, you will probably have to make some changes.

Here are all the changes:

Old names	New names
Net::GeminiRequest	Net::Gemini::Request (still 'net/gemini/request')
Net::GeminiBadRequest	Net::Gemini::BadRequest (require 'net/gemini/error')
Net::GeminiResponse	Net::Gemini::Response (still 'net/gemini/response')
Net::GeminiBadResponse	Net::Gemini::BadResponse (require 'net/gemini/error')
Net::GeminiError	Net::Gemini::Error (require 'net/gemini/error')
Net::Gemini.new	Net::Gemini::Client.new (directly required as part of 'net/gemini')
Gemini::ReflowText	Net::Text::Reflow (no more expected to be included, but directly called)
Gemini::GmiParser	- (directly integrated into Net::Gemini::Response)
Gemini::SSL	- (directly integrated into Net::Gemini::Client)
