CI: handle dependencies the same way, add Tilt to the matrix (#1881)
Adds Tilt (https://rubygems.org/gems/tilt) to the CI matrix. It now
resides at https://github.com/jeremyevans/tilt

Changes `latest` to `head` because "latest" sounds a lot like "latest
release" but we mean using the main/master branch of the repo of the
dependency we test with. Matches `ruby-head`.

run MyApp
