* Reorganize autoloads:Carlhuda2009-12-021-0/+37
* A new module (ActiveSupport::Autoload) is provide that extends autoloading with new behavior. * All autoloads in modules that have extended ActiveSupport::Autoload will be eagerly required in threadsafe environments * Autoloads can optionally leave off the path if the path is the same as full_constant_name.underscore * It is possible to specify that a group of autoloads live under an additional path. For instance, all of ActionDispatch's middlewares are ActionDispatch::MiddlewareName, but they live under "action_dispatch/middlewares/middleware_name" * It is possible to specify that a group of autoloads are all found at the same path. For instance, a number of exceptions might all be declared there. * One consequence of this is that testing-related constants are not autoloaded. To get the testing helpers for a given component, require "component_name/test_case". For instance, "action_controller/test_case". * test_help.rb, which is automatically required by a Rails application's test helper, requires the test_case.rb for all active components, so this change will not be disruptive in existing or new applications.
