When you customize a group, Custom loads all the packages that belong
to the group.  So in this case it loads ruby-ts-mode, and you get the
warning.

Emacs 29 deliberately checks for the grammar's availability when the
package is loaded, to give users a prominent indication that the
loaded package will not work.  This won't change in Emacs 29, but
maybe as part of rethinking this after releasing Emacs 29 we could
improve the situation with customizing a group as well.

Anyway, the warning is just a warning, and is otherwise harmless.  It
also only appears when Emacs has been built with tree-sitter, but the
grammar libraries required by some *-ts-mode's are not installed.
