* Create indexes inline in CREATE TABLE for MySQL.
This is important, because adding an index on a temporary table after it has been created
would commit the transaction.
It also allows creating and dropping indexed tables with fewer queries and fewer permissions
required.
Example:
create_table :temp, temporary: true, as: "SELECT id, name, zip FROM a_really_complicated_query" do |t|
t.index :zip
end
# => CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE temp (INDEX (zip)) AS SELECT id, name, zip FROM a_really_complicated_query

* Save `has_one` association even if the record doesn't changed.
Fixes #14407.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Use singular table name in generated migrations when
`ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names` is `false`.
Fixes #13426.
*Kuldeep Aggarwal*
* `touch` accepts many attributes to be touched at once.
Example:
# touches :signed_at, :sealed_at, and :updated_at/on attributes.
Photo.last.touch(:signed_at, :sealed_at)
*James Pinto*
* `rake db:structure:dump` only dumps schema information if the schema
migration table exists.
Fixes #14217.

* Reap connections that were checked out by now-dead threads, instead
of waiting until they disconnect by themselves. Before this change,
a suitably constructed series of short-lived threads could starve
the connection pool, without ever having more than a couple alive at
the same time.
*Matthew Draper*
* `pk_and_sequence_for` now ensures that only the pg_depend entries
pointing to pg_class, and thus only sequence objects, are considered.
*Josh Williams*
* `where.not` adds `references` for `includes` like normal `where` calls do.
Fixes #14406.
*Yves Senn*
* Extend fixture `$LABEL` replacement to allow string interpolation.
Example:
martin:
email: $LABEL@email.com
users(:martin).email # => martin@email.com
*Eric Steele*
* Add support for `Relation` be passed as parameter on `QueryCache#select_all`.
Fixes #14361.

* Passing an Active Record object to `find` is now deprecated. Call `.id`
on the object first.
* Passing an Active Record object to `find` or `exists?` is now deprecated.
Call `.id` on the object first.
* Only use BINARY for MySQL case sensitive uniqueness check when column has a case insensitive collation.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Support for MySQL 5.6 fractional seconds.
*arthurnn*, *Tatsuhiko Miyagawa*
* Support for Postgres `citext` data type enabling case-insensitive where
values without needing to wrap in UPPER/LOWER sql functions.
*Troy Kruthoff*, *Lachlan Sylvester*
* Allow strings to specify the `#order` value.
Example:
Model.order(id: 'asc').to_sql == Model.order(id: :asc).to_sql
*Marcelo Casiraghi*, *Robin Dupret*
* Dynamically register PostgreSQL enum OIDs. This prevents "unknown OID"
warnings on enum columns.
*Dieter Komendera*
* `includes` is able to detect the right preloading strategy when string
joins are involved.
Fixes #14109.
*Aaron Patterson*, *Yves Senn*
* Fixed error with validation with enum fields for records where the
value for any enum attribute is always evaluated as 0 during
uniqueness validation.
Fixes #14172.
*Vilius Luneckas* *Ahmed AbouElhamayed*
* `before_add` callbacks are fired before the record is saved on
`has_and_belongs_to_many` assocations *and* on `has_many :through`
associations. Before this change, `before_add` callbacks would be fired
before the record was saved on `has_and_belongs_to_many` associations, but
*not* on `has_many :through` associations.
Fixes #14144.
* Fixed STI classes not defining an attribute method if there is a
conflicting private method defined on its ancestors.
Fixes #11569.
*Godfrey Chan*
* Coerce strings when reading attributes. Fixes #10485.
Example:
book = Book.new(title: 12345)
book.save!
book.title # => "12345"
*Yves Senn*
* Deprecate half-baked support for PostgreSQL range values with excluding beginnings.
We currently map PostgreSQL ranges to Ruby ranges. This conversion is not fully
possible because the Ruby range does not support excluded beginnings.
The current solution of incrementing the beginning is not correct and is now
deprecated. For subtypes where we don't know how to increment (e.g. `#succ`
is not defined) it will raise an ArgumentException for ranges with excluding
beginnings.
*Yves Senn*
* Support for user created range types in PostgreSQL.
