This clears the transaction record state when the transaction finishes
with a `:committed` status.

Considering the following example where `name` is a required attribute.
Before we had `new_record?` returning `true` for a persisted record:

```ruby
  author = Author.create! name: 'foo'
  author.name = nil
  author.save        # => false
  author.new_record? # => true
```

As per the docs, `mark_for_destruction` should do nothing if `autosave`
is not set to true. We normally persist associations on a record no
matter what if the record is a new record, but we were always skipping
records which were `marked_for_destruction?`.

Fixes #20882

Since the counter cache was properly being updated, the model became
stale. Simply reloading the model before attempting to destroy is
sufficient for this case. I believe this is enough of an edge case to be
a valid change to the tests, even though it represents a potential
breaking change.

Also removes a false positive test that depends on the fixed bug:

At this time, counter_cache does not work with polymorphic relationships
(which is a bug). The test was added to make sure that no
StaleObjectError is raised when the car is destroyed. No such error is
currently raised because the lock version is not incremented by
appending a wheel to the car.

Furthermore, `assert_difference` succeeds because `car.wheels.count`
does not check the counter cache, but the collection size. The test will
fail if it is replaced with `car.wheels_count || 0`.

This code is so fucked. Things that cause this bug not to replicate:

- Defining the validation before the association (we end up calling
  `uniq!` on the errors in the autosave validation)
- Adding `accepts_nested_attributes_for` (I have no clue why. The only
  thing it does that should affect this is adds `autosave: true` to the
  inverse reflection, and doing that manually doesn't fix this).

This solution is a hack, and I'm almost certain there's a better way to
go about it, but this shouldn't cause a huge hit on validation times,
and is the simplest way to get it done.

Fixes #20874.

Since nested hashes are also instances of
`ActionController::Parameters`, and we're explicitly looking to work
with a hash for nested attributes, this caused breakage in several
points.

This is the minimum viable fix for the issue (and one that I'm not
terribly fond of). I can't think of a better place to handle this at the
moment. I'd prefer to use some sort of solution that doesn't special
case AC::Parameters, but we can't use something like `to_h` or `to_a`
since `Enumerable` adds both.

While I've added a trivial test case for verifying this fix in
isolation, we really need better integration coverage to prevent
regressions like this in the future. We don't actually have a lot of
great places for integration coverage at the moment, so I'm deferring it
for now.

Fixes #20922.

We deprecate the support for passing an argument to force reload in
6eae366d. That led to several
deprecation warning when running Active Record test suite.

This commit silence the warnings by properly calling `#reload` on the
association proxy or on the association object instead. However, there
are several places that `ActiveSupport::Deprecation.silence` are used as
those tests actually tests the force reload functionality and will be
removed once `master` is targeted next minor release (5.1).

This is to simplify the association API, as you can call `reload` on the
association proxy or the parent object to get the same result.

For collection association, you can call `#reload` on association proxy
to force a reload:

    @user.posts.reload   # Instead of @user.posts(true)

For singular association, you can call `#reload` on the parent object to
clear its association cache then call the association method:

    @user.reload.profile   # Instead of @user.profile(true)

Passing a truthy argument to force association to reload will be removed
in Rails 5.1.

The concurrent-ruby gem is a toolset containing many concurrency
utilities. Many of these utilities include runtime-specific
optimizations when possible. Rather than clutter the Rails codebase with
concurrency utilities separate from the core task, such tools can be
superseded by similar tools in the more specialized gem. This commit
replaces `ActiveSupport::Concurrency::Latch` with
`Concurrent::CountDownLatch`, which is functionally equivalent.

When preload is used in a default scope the preload_values were
returning nested arrays and causing the preloader to fail because it
doesn't know how to deal with nested arrays. So before calling preload!
we need to splat the arguments.

This is not needed to includes because it flatten its arguments.

After 908cfef6 was introduced fixtures that did not set an enum would
return nil instead of the default enum value.

The fixtures should assume the default if a different enum is not
defined.

The change checks first if the enum is defined in the fixture before
setting it based on the fixture.

The changes introduced to through associations in c80487eb were quite
interesting. Changing `relation.merge!(scope)` to `relation =
relation.merge(scope)` should in theory never cause any changes in
behavior. The subtle breakage led to a surprising conclusion.

The old code wasn't doing anything! Since `merge!` calls
`instance_exec` when given a proc, and most scopes will look something
like `has_many :foos, -> { where(foo: :bar) }`, if we're not capturing
the return value, it's a no-op. However, removing the `merge` causes
`unscope` to break.

While we're merging in the rest of the chain elsewhere, we were never
merging in `unscope` values, causing a breakage on associations where a
default scope was being unscoped in an association scope (yuk!). This is
subtly related to #20722, since it appears we were previously relying on
this mutability.

Fixes #20721.
Fixes #20727.

Passing `:from` and `:to` to `change_column_default` makes this command
reversible as user has defined its previous state.

So, instead of having the migration command as:

    change_column_default(:posts, :state, "draft")

They can write it as:

    change_column_default(:posts, :state, from: nil, to: "draft")

This matches our behavior in other cases where useful enumerable methods
might have a different definition in `Relation`. Wanting to actually
enumerate over the records in this case is completely reasonable, and
wanting `.sum` is reasonable for the same reason it is on `Enumerable`
in the first place.

raise ActiveModel::MissingAttributeError when trying to access a relationship without the foreign key attribute

fixes regression reported on #20253

ActiveRecord::Base#[] was not used cause of 8b954200

This used to raise a `IrreversibleMigration` error (since #10437).
However since `remove_index :table, :column` is probably the most basic
use-case we should make it reversible again.

Unitialized polymorphic `belongs_to` associations raise an error while
attempting to reload, as they attempt to make an uncached reload, but
don't have a klass to fetch uncachedly. In this case, `loaded?` should
be `false` anyway.

If a getter has side effects on the DB, `changes_applied` will be called
twice. The second time will try and remove the changed attributes cache,
and will crash because it's already been unset. This also demonstrates
that we shouldn't assume that calling getters won't change the value of
`changed_attributes`, and we need to clear the cache if an attribute is
modified.

Fixes #20531.

Fixes #17511 and #17415

`serialize` makes the contract that if it is given a class name, it will
never return something other than an instance of that class. This means
that it must cast `nil` to the empty form of that object. As such, we
should then persist empty forms of that object as `nil`. While this is
techincally under the contract of

```
model.attribute = value
assert_equal model.attribute, model.tap(&:save).reload.attribute
```

which we can't actually test universally without property based testing,
it has come up more than once and is worth calling out specifically
since we aren't looking to change it.

If the subtype provides custom schema dumping behavior, we need to defer
to it. We purposely choose not to handle any values other than an array
(which technically should only ever be `nil`, but I'd rather code
defensively here).

Fixes #20515.

This introduces a deprecation cycle to change the behavior of the
default point type in the PostgreSQL adapter. The old behavior will
continue to be available for the immediate future as `:legacy_point`.

The current behavior of returning an `Array` causes several problems,
the most significant of which is that we cannot differentiate between an
array of points, and a point itself in the case of a column with the
`point[]` type.

The attributes API gives us a reasonable way to have a proper
deprecation cycle for this change, so let's take advantage of it. If we
like this change, we can also add proper support for the other geometric
types (line, lseg, box, path, polygon, and circle), all of which are
just aliases for string today.

Fixes #20441

It was not being applied to creates and updates attempted through the
non-bang save methods. This means that, for example, creation of
records for singular associations through the `create_*` methods was
not appropriately ignored in .suppress blocks.
