Suppose Man has_many interests, and inverse_of is used.
Man.first.interests.first.man will correctly execute two queries,
avoiding the need for a third query when Interest#man is called. This is
because CollectionAssociation#first calls set_inverse_instance.
However Man.first.interests.where("1=1").first.man will execute three
queries, even though this is obviously a subset of the records in the
association.
This is because calling where("1=1") spawns a new Relation object from
the CollectionProxy object, and the Relation has no knowledge of the
association, so it cannot set the inverse instance.
This commit solves the problem by making relations spawned from
CollectionProxies return a new Relation subclass called
AssociationRelation, which does know about associations. Records loaded
from this class will get the inverse instance set properly.
Fixes#5717.

This reimplements the behaviour of Rails 3, as I couldn't see why we
shouldn't cache the object, and @alindeman had a good use case for
caching it:

Closes#7364.
Collection associations behave similar to Arrays. However there is no
way to prepend records. And to append one should use `<<`. Before this
patch `#append` and `#prepend` did not add the record to the loaded
association.
`#append` now behaves like `<<` and `#prepend` is not defined.
This can be used to get a Relation from an association.
Previously we had a #scoped method, but we're deprecating that for
AR::Base, so it doesn't make sense to have it here.
This was requested by DHH, to facilitate code like this:
Project.scope.order('created_at DESC').page(current_page).tagged_with(@tag).limit(5).scoping do
@topics = @project.topics.scope
@todolists = @project.todolists.scope
@attachments = @project.attachments.scope
@documents = @project.documents.scope
end
Instead of generating association methods directly in the model
class, they are generated in an anonymous module which
is then included in the model class. There is one such module
for each association. The only subtlety is that the
generated_attributes_methods module (from ActiveModel) must
be forced to be included before association methods are created
so that attribute methods will not shadow association methods.
