helloweb/ruby: Abandon usage of slapos.cookbook:wrapper

It turned out we cannot currently use slapos.cookbook in software part
of SR - the reason is slapos.cookbook egg depends on lxml egg, which in
turn needs libxml to be also installed via slapos.

For this reason stack/slapos.cfg has

    [slapos-cookbook]   # NOTE _not_ slapos.cookbook
    recipe = zc.recipe.egg
    eggs =
      ${lxml-python:egg}
    ...

and lxml-python is lxml building recipe to build it together with
libxml:

    [lxml-python]
    recipe = zc.recipe.egg:custom
    egg = lxml

    rpath =
      ${libxml2:location}/lib/
      ${libxslt:location}/lib/
      ${zlib:location}/lib/
    environment = lxml-python-env
    ...

So underlying idea, as I understand it, is: every SR contains
slapos-cookbook in parts and this way lxml-python gets build. Then when
there is slapos.cookbook egg usage, it is already correctly built.

BUT

This works when such slapos.cookbook egg usage happens _only_ in instance
part of an SR: otherwise, if buildout sees slapos.cookbook egg usage in
some recipe, e.g. like it currently is in helloweb-ruby:

    [helloweb-ruby]
    recipe  = slapos.cookbook:wrapper
    ...

it _first_ tries to install slapos.cookbook egg directly - as needed for
recipes eggs are installed as a first step, _before_ further buildout
processing. What happens then is that slapos.cookbook (note not "-") egg
sources and dependencies are downloaded from pypi, including lxml egg,
all are tried to build, and in lxml egg it fails this way:

    ...

Previously it probably used to work because we had system libxml
installed, and this way lxml compilation succeeded (but was incorrect
from slapos point of view).

( The problem turned out to be already known somehow - see e.g. c7d00913
  "Initial neoppod commit." and look for "Note on LXML/END LXML" there )

Solution could be: either fix slapos.cookbook installation via e.g.
teaching buildout to take into account pre-dependencies for eggs (for
lxml) or just to avoid using slapos.cookbook:wrapper for executable
generation.

While @kazuhiko is working on the first more-generic solution, here goes
a simpler one to just make helloweb component alive again: like it is
done in a lot of places (e.g. in software/kvm/) let's use
collective.recipe.template to generate a short shell script.

NOTE

previously the command line was

    ${bundler:bundle} exec sh -c 'helloweb.rb "$@"' ${:_buildout_section_name_}

but now it is the same with "$@" appended:

    exec ${bundler:bundle} exec sh -c 'helloweb.rb "$@"' ${:_buildout_section_name_} "$@"

The reason is slapos.cookbook:wrapper uses slapos.recipe.librecipe.execute.generic_exec()
in generated script, which appends sys.argv[1:] to the command-line implicitly:

    def generic_exec(args):
      ...
      os.execve(exec_list[0], exec_list + sys.argv[1:], exec_env)
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    https://lab.nexedi.com/nexedi/slapos/blob/54bbe0a9/slapos/recipe/librecipe/execute.py#L84

that's why last "$@" was not present in original version.

P.S.

Otherwise currently slapos.cookbook is used only in instance parts of
recipes in whole slapos.git
