Turn ActionController::Base inclusions explicit
Currently, we are using dynamic inclusions to
guarantee that the list of MODULES is always up to
date with what gets included into Base. However,
that prevents static analysis tools from
understanding the ancestors of controllers, which
prevents completion and other editor features from
working correctly. We can instead use a unit test
to verify that both lists are synchronized, which
retains the original behavior while allowing for
more accurate static analysis.

= Action Pack -- From request to response

Action Pack is a framework for handling and responding to web requests. It
provides mechanisms for *routing* (mapping request URLs to actions), defining
*controllers* that implement actions, and generating responses. In short, Action Pack
provides the controller layer in the MVC paradigm.

It consists of several modules:

* Action Dispatch, which parses information about the web request, handles
  routing as defined by the user, and does advanced processing related to HTTP
  such as MIME-type negotiation, decoding parameters in POST, PATCH, or PUT bodies,
  handling HTTP caching logic, cookies and sessions.

* Action Controller, which provides a base controller class that can be
  subclassed to implement filters and actions to handle requests. The result
  of an action is typically content generated from views.

With the Ruby on \Rails framework, users only directly interface with the
Action Controller module. Necessary Action Dispatch functionality is activated
by default and Action View rendering is implicitly triggered by Action
Controller. However, these modules are designed to function on their own and
can be used outside of \Rails.

You can read more about Action Pack in the {Action Controller Overview}[https://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html] guide.
