mysql2 knows how to handle Time and Date objects but doesn't know
about TimeWithZone. This was causing failures when prepared statements
were enabled since we were passing TimeWithZone objects that mysql2 didn't
know how to deal with.
An new environment variable to enable prepared statements were added to
config.example.yml, so we can test in our CI and prevent regressions.
Fixes#41368.
https://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/
- 9.1 EOLed on September 2016.
- 9.2 EOLed on September 2017.
9.3 is also not supported since Nov 8, 2018. https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1905/
I think it may be a little bit early to drop PostgreSQL 9.3 yet.
* Deprecated `supports_ranges?` since no other databases support range data type
* Add `supports_materialized_views?` to abstract adapter
Materialized views itself is supported by other databases, other connection adapters may support them
* Remove `with_manual_interventions`
It was only necessary for PostgreSQL 9.1 or earlier
* Drop CI against PostgreSQL 9.2
The default collation for utf8mb4 is changed to utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci in
MySQL 8.0, so `test_mysql_connection_collation_is_configured` is
affected by MySQL version and/or default_collation_for_utf8mb4 system
variable.

* Use utf8mb4 character set by default
`utf8mb4` character set supports supplementary characters including emoji.
`utf8` character set with 3-Byte encoding is not enough to support them.
There was a downside of 4-Byte length character set with MySQL 5.5 and 5.6:
"ERROR 1071 (42000): Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes"
for Rails string data type which is mapped to varchar(255) type.
MySQL 5.7 supports 3072 byte key prefix length by default.
* Remove `DEFAULT COLLATE` from Active Record unit test databases
There should be no "one size fits all" collation in MySQL 5.7.
Let MySQL server choose the default collation for Active Record
unit test databases.
Users can choose their best collation for their databases
by setting `options[:collation]` based on their requirements.
* InnoDB FULLTEXT indexes support since MySQL 5.6
it does not have to use MyISAM storage engine whose maximum key length is 1000 bytes.
Using MyISAM storag engine with utf8mb4 character set would cause
"Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes"

Followed this instruction and changed root password to empty string.

* The recommended minimum version of MySQL is 5.7.9
to support utf8mb4 character set and `innodb_default_row_format`
MySQL 5.7.9 introduces `innodb_default_row_format` to support 3072 byte length index by default.
Users do not have to change MySQL database configuration to support Rails string type.

* The recommended minimum version of MariaDB is 10.2.2
MariaDB 10.2.2 is the first version of MariaDB supporting `innodb_default_row_format`
Also MariaDB says "MySQL 5.7 is compatible with MariaDB 10.2".

- The query needs to be executed for hitting `select_all` so made sure
that query gets executed.
- Also instead of changing instance variable, just add new
configuration for prepared_statements: false and use it for this
test.
- This way we don't have to touch the internals of AR code and still
disable prepared statements config for this test.
Sets the connection collation to the database collation configured
in database.yml. Otherwise, `SET NAMES utf8mb4` will use the default
collation for that charset (utf8mb4_general_ci) when you may have chosen
a different collation, like utf8mb4_unicode_ci.
This only applies to literal string comparisons, not column values, so
it is unlikely to affect you.
