More direct download url to fix Chef::Exceptions::RedirectLimitExceeded

Hi,

Recently, when provisioning machines with chruby recipe (chef 11.10.0) you get an error Chef::Exceptions::RedirectLimitExceeded. Looks like GitHub makes redirects to download the actual file and that causes the problem. Not sure if that's absolutely right approach, but providing more direct download URL fixes the issue.

Here's the log from provisioning when the problem appears. Tested on few different OSX machines, different providers (virtualbox, parallels), different days.
