Summary: Add shebang to bin/spec so that Edge may be run for non-Rails projects

Initial Comment:
I found out that bin/spec bootstrap script is missing shebang so Edge can't be used for pure Ruby projects.

Here is the patch that adds shebang so you only have to link /usr/bin/spec or /opt/local/bin or whatever to your bin/spec in RSpec repository working copy to be running Edge.

We may add this information to documentation section "Living on the edge". What is the best way to submit it? I'm ready to contribute some information on how jump from gem to the edge.

Message:
First, I don't see a patch.

Second, I don't recall the specific problem, but we originally had the shebang in there and removed it because there was a conflict, I believe, on windows systems. When you install the gem on *nix systems it gets added to the spec command.

So simply sticking it in the file would not be acceptable.

I'm closing this, but if you have an alternative idea as to how to approach this, feel free to reopen it.
