[rubygems/rubygems] fix: Gem::Platform.match handles String argument properly

Previously 9eead86 introduced non-commutativity of platforms, and
later commit 1b9f7f50 changed the behavior of `Gem::Platform.match` to
ensure the callee of `#=~` was the gem platform.

However, when the platform argument is a String, then the callee and
argument of `#=~` are flipped (see docs for `String#=~`), which works
against the fix from 1b9f7f50.

Closes #5938
