Add ability to prevent writes to a database
This PR adds the ability to prevent writes to a database even if the database user is able to write (ie the database is a primary and not a replica). This is useful for a few reasons: 1) when converting your database from a single db to a primary/replica setup - you can fix all the writes on reads early on, 2) when we implement automatic database switching or when an app is manually switching connections this feature can be used to ensure reads are reading and writes are writing. We want to make sure we raise if we ever try to write in read mode, regardless of database type and 3) for local development if you don't want to set up multiple databases but do want to support rw/ro queries. This should be used in conjunction with `connected_to` in write mode. For example: ``` ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :writing) do Dog.connection.while_preventing_writes do Dog.create! # will raise because we're preventing writes end end ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :reading) do Dog.connection.while_preventing_writes do Dog.first # will not raise because we're not writing end end ```
