Andrew White 8ca8a2d773 Refactor handling of :action default in routing
The longstanding convention in Rails is that if the :action parameter
is missing or nil then it defaults to 'index'. Up until Rails 5.0.0.beta1
this was handled slightly differently than other routing defaults by
deleting it from the route options and adding it to the recall parameters.

With the recent focus of removing unnecessary duplications this has
exposed a problem in this strategy - we are now mutating the request's
path parameters and causing problems for later url generation. This will
typically affect url_for rather a named url helper since the latter
explicitly pass :controller, :action, etc.

The fix is to add a default for :action in the route class if the path
contains an :action segment and no default is passed. This change also
revealed an issue with the parameterized part expiry in that it doesn't
follow a right to left order - as soon as a dynamic segment is required
then all other segments become required.

Fixes #23019.

= 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 by rendering
*views*, which are templates of various formats. In short, Action Pack
provides the view and controller layers 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.
