* Fix duplicated record creation when using nested attributes with `create_with`.
*Darwin Wu*
* Configuration item `config.filter_parameters` could also filter out sensitive value of database column when call `#inspect`.
```
Rails.application.config.filter_parameters += [:credit_card_number]
Account.last.inspect # => #<Account id: 123, credit_card_number: [FILTERED] ...>
```
*Zhang Kang*
* Deprecate `column_name_length`, `table_name_length`, `columns_per_table`,
`indexes_per_table`, `columns_per_multicolumn_index`, `sql_query_length`,
and `joins_per_query` methods in `DatabaseLimits`.

* `ActiveRecord::Base.configurations` now returns an object.
`ActiveRecord::Base.configurations` used to return a hash, but this
is an inflexible data model. In order to improve multiple-database
handling in Rails, we've changed this to return an object. Some methods
are provided to make the object behave hash-like in order to ease the
transition process. Since most applications don't manipulate the hash
we've decided to add backwards-compatible functionality that will throw
a deprecation warning if used, however calling `ActiveRecord::Base.configurations`
will use the new version internally and externally.
For example, the following `database.yml`:
```
development:
adapter: sqlite3
database: db/development.sqlite3
```
Used to become a hash:
```
{ "development" => { "adapter" => "sqlite3", "database" => "db/development.sqlite3" } }
```
Is now converted into the following object:
```
#<ActiveRecord::DatabaseConfigurations:0x00007fd1acbdf800 @configurations=[
#<ActiveRecord::DatabaseConfigurations::HashConfig:0x00007fd1acbded10 @env_name="development",
@spec_name="primary", @config={"adapter"=>"sqlite3", "database"=>"db/development.sqlite3"}>
]
```
Iterating over the database configurations has also changed. Instead of
calling hash methods on the `configurations` hash directly, a new method `configs_for` has
been provided that allows you to select the correct configuration. `env_name`, and
`spec_name` arguments are optional. For example these return an array of
database config objects for the requested environment and a single database config object
will be returned for the requested environment and specification name respectively.
```
ActiveRecord::Base.configurations.configs_for(env_name: "development")
ActiveRecord::Base.configurations.configs_for(env_name: "development", spec_name: "primary")
```

adapter: postgresql
advisory_locks: false
