Default I18n.enforce_available_locales to true
We will default this option to true from now on to ensure users properly handle their list of available locales whenever necessary. This option was added as a security measure and thus Rails will follow it defaulting to secure option.
Also improve the handling of I18n config options in its railtie, taking the new enforce_available_locales option into account, by setting it as the last one in the process. This ensures no other configuration will trigger a deprecation warning due to that setting.
This change was necessary because the whitelist wouldn't work.
It would be painful for users trying to update their applications.
This blacklist intent to prevent odd bugs and confusion in code that call mutator
methods directely on the `Relation`.
As discussed with @fxn the release notes are a snapshot document.
The links going out to the API should represent that exact snapshot.
This means we always link to the full final release. For example
the 3.2 release notes link to http://api.rubyonrails.org/v3.2.0.
The option enforce_available_locales is only available on latest
versions, so require the last available one which has the option +
other related fixes and should not have backward compatibility issues.

Using the name of an association in `where` previously worked only
if the value was a single `ActiveRecrd::Base` object. e.g.
Post.where(author: Author.first)
Any other values, including `nil`, would cause invalid SQL to be
generated. This change supports arguments in the `where` query
conditions where the key is a `belongs_to` association name and the
value is `nil`, an `Array` of `ActiveRecord::Base` objects, or an
`ActiveRecord::Relation` object.
# Given the Post model
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :author
end
# nil value finds records where the association is not set
Post.where(author: nil)
# SELECT "posts".* FROM "posts" WHERE "posts"."author_id" IS NULL
# Array values find records where the association foreign key
# matches the ids of the passed ActiveRecord models, resulting
# in the same query as Post.where(author_id: [1,2])
authors_array = [Author.find(1), Author.find(2)]
Post.where(author: authors_array)
# ActiveRecord::Relation values find records using the same
# query as Post.where(author_id: Author.where(last_name: "Emde"))
Post.where(author: Author.where(last_name: "Emde"))
Polymorphic `belongs_to` associations will continue to be handled
appropriately, with the polymorphic `association_type` field added
to the query to match the base class of the value. This feature
previously only worked when the value was a single `ActveRecord::Base`.
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :author, polymorphic: true
end
Post.where(author: Author.where(last_name: "Emde"))
# Generates a query similar to:
Post.where(author_id: Author.where(last_name: "Emde"), author_type: "Author")
db:test:clone and db:test:prepare use
ActiveRecord::Base. configurations, so we need to load the rails
environment, otherwise the config wont be in place.
