This behavior was broken by 36e9be85. When the value is assigned
directly, either through mass assignment or directly assigning a hash,
the hash gets passed through to this writer method directly. While this
is intended to handle certain cases, when an explicit converter has been
provided, we should continue to use that instead. The positioning of the
added guard caused the new behavior to override that case.
Fixes#25210
Ensure class variable is set to nil.
It prevents the following test to fail:
def test_do_not_run_the_converter_when_nil_was_set
customers(:david).non_blank_gps_location = nil
assert_nil Customer.gps_conversion_was_run
end
Check https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activerecord/test/models/customer.rb#L7
for more information.
This reverts commit 14fc8b3452.
Reason: we need to discuss a better path from this removal.

This feature adds a lot of complication to ActiveRecord for dubious
value. Let's talk about what it does currently:
class Customer < ActiveRecord::Base
composed_of :balance, :class_name => "Money", :mapping => %w(balance amount)
end
Instead, you can do something like this:
def balance
@balance ||= Money.new(value, currency)
end
def balance=(balance)
self[:value] = balance.value
self[:currency] = balance.currency
@balance = balance
end
Since that's fairly easy code to write, and doesn't need anything
extra from the framework, if you use composed_of today, you'll
have to add accessors/mutators like that.

This makes it possible to filter invalid input values before they are passed
into the value-object (like empty strings). This behaviour is only relevant
if the :allow_nil options is set to true. Otherwise you will get
the resulting NoMethodError.
