Change asset pipeline default to Propshaft in Rails 8 (#51799)

* Change asset pipeline default to Propshaft

* Use :all for stylesheets when propshaft is active

* Switch to using propshaft as the default (still need to find a way to tests against sprockets too)

* Fix tests that rely on sprockets being used

* Fix Propshaft tests (#51913)

* Update railties/test/generators/shared_generator_tests.rb
