Brad Trick 880a1bedb9 Allow skip_forgery_protection if no protection set
Calling `skip_forgery_protection` without first calling
`protect_from_forgery`--either manually or through default
settings--raises an `ArgumentError` because `verify_authenticity_token`
has not been defined as a callback.

Since Rails 7.0 adds `skip_forgery_protection` to the
`Rails::WelcomeController` (PR #42864), this behavior means that setting
`default_protect_from_forgery` to false and visiting the Rails Welcome
page (`/`) raises an error.

This behavior also created an issue for `ActionMailbox` that was
previously fixed in the Mailbox controller by running
`skip_forgery_protection` only if `default_protect_from_forgery` was
true (PR #35935).

This PR addresses the underlying issue by setting the `raise` option for
`skip_before_action` to default to false inside
`skip_forgery_protection`.

The fix is implemented in `request_forgery_protection.rb`. The change to
`ActionMailbox`'s `base_controller.rb` removes the now-unnecessary
check of `default_protect_from_forgery`.

The tests added in `request_forgery_protection_test.rb` and
`routing_test.rb` both raise an error when run against the current
codebase and pass with the changes noted above.

= Action Pack -- From request to response

Action Pack is a framework for handling and responding to web requests. It
provides mechanisms for *routing* (mapping request URLs to actions), defining
*controllers* that implement actions, and generating responses. In short, Action Pack
provides the controller layer in the MVC paradigm.

It consists of several modules:

* Action Dispatch, which parses information about the web request, handles
  routing as defined by the user, and does advanced processing related to HTTP
  such as MIME-type negotiation, decoding parameters in POST, PATCH, or PUT bodies,
  handling HTTP caching logic, cookies and sessions.

* Action Controller, which provides a base controller class that can be
  subclassed to implement filters and actions to handle requests. The result
  of an action is typically content generated from views.

With the Ruby on Rails framework, users only directly interface with the
Action Controller module. Necessary Action Dispatch functionality is activated
by default and Action View rendering is implicitly triggered by Action
Controller. However, these modules are designed to function on their own and
can be used outside of Rails.

You can read more about Action Pack in the {Action Controller Overview}[https://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html] guide.
