[Rationale]
The package ruby-ffi is required in Ubuntu main for ruby-ethon
promotion which is a runtime dependency of pcs (the main reason for this
promotion).
Ideally, we expect that ruby-ffi (and pcs) will be promoted in the
Kinetic development cycle. The idea is to promote only the ruby-ffi
binary.
