Motivation

A reader of the docs pointed out that the docs mix "HotCell", "hotcell" and "Hot Cell" for the software's name, and that the README's pre-release warning has been out of date since v1.0.0.

Details

Prose, gemspec summaries and descriptions, and code comments now say "Hot Cell". HotCell stays for the Ruby namespace, and hotcell for directories, files, gem names and commands. Where "the hotcell gems" meant the hotcell-* gems as opposed to the Active Storage gems, the text now says hotcell-*.

The "This is pre-release software" paragraph is removed from the README's Status section.

Additional information

Runtime output is unchanged: the hotcell NAME: prefix on boot warnings, the HotCell (12ms) log line, and the bin/conformance result lines. Applications and scripts may match on that output, so changing it is a separate decision.

The docs used "HotCell", "hotcell" and "Hot Cell" for the software, and
the README still said it was pre-release after v1.0.0. Write "Hot Cell"
in prose, keep `HotCell` for the namespace and `hotcell` for
directories, files, gems and commands, and remove the warning.
