1. Conceptually revert #20276 The feature was implemented for the `responders` gem. In the end, they did not need that feature, and have found a better fix (see plataformatec/responders#131). `ImplicitRender` is the place where Rails specifies our default policies for the case where the user did not explicitly tell us what to render, essentially describing a set of heuristics. If the gem (or the user) knows exactly what they want, they could just perform the correct `render` to avoid falling through to here, as `responders` did (the user called `respond_with`). Reverting the patch allows us to avoid exploding the complexity and defining “the fallback for a fallback” policies. 2. `respond_to` and templates are considered exhaustive enumerations If the user specified a list of formats/variants in a `respond_to` block, anything that is not explicitly included should result in an `UnknownFormat` error (which is then caught upstream to mean “406 Not Acceptable” by default). This is already how it works before this commit. Same goes for templates – if the user defined a set of templates (usually in the file system), that set is now considered exhaustive, which means that “missing” templates are considered `UnknownFormat` errors (406). 3. To keep API endpoints simple, the implicit render behavior for actions with no templates defined at all (regardless of formats, locales, variants, etc) are defaulted to “204 No Content”. This is a strictly narrower version of the feature landed in #19036 and #19377. 4. To avoid confusion when interacting in the browser, these actions will raise an `UnknownFormat` error for “interactive” requests instead. (The precise definition of “interactive” requests might change – the spirit here is to give helpful messages and avoid confusions.)
