Update development dependencies
I consolidated all the development dependencies in the gemspec,
then ran `bundle update` and `appraisal install`.

I also got rid of unnecessary version constraints (I would rather just
the latest versions of things in development, and we can always add
constraints later if necessary), and removed the jruby-specific gems
since we aren't testing on jruby anymore.
