Ruby 3.4.8 has been released.

This is a routine update that includes bug fixes.
Please refer to the [release notes on GitHub](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/releases/tag/v3_4_8) for further details.

## Release Schedule

We intend to release the latest stable Ruby version (currently Ruby 3.4) every two months following the most recent release.
Ruby 3.4.9 is scheduled for February.

If a change arises that significantly affects users, a release may occur earlier than planned, and the subsequent schedule may shift accordingly.
