Previously in some places we used symbol keys, and in some places we used
string keys. That made it pretty confusing to figure out in a particular
place what type of configuration object you were working with.
Now internally, all configuration hashes are keyed by symbols and
converted to such on the way in.
A few exceptions:
- `DatabaseConfigurations#to_h` still returns strings for backward compatibility
- Same for `legacy_hash`
- `default_hash` previously could return strings, but the associated
comment mentions it returns symbol-key `Hash` and now it always does
Because this is a change in behavior, a few method renames have happened:
- `DatabaseConfig#config` is now `DatabaseConfig#configuration_hash` and returns a symbol-key `Hash`
- `ConnectionSpecification#config` is now `ConnectionSpecification#underlying_configuration_hash` and returns the `Hash` of the underlying `DatabaseConfig`
- `DatabaseConfig#config` was added back, returns `String`-keys for backward compatibility, and is deprecated in favor of the new `configuration_hash`
