ActiveSupport::Duration.parse('P3Y') == 3.years # It should be true
Duration parsing made independent from any moment of time:
Fixed length in seconds is assigned to each duration part during parsing.
Changed duration of months and years in seconds to more accurate and logical:
1. The value of 365.2425 days in Gregorian year is more accurate
as it accounts for every 400th non-leap year.
2. Month's length is bound to year's duration, which makes
sensible comparisons like `12.months == 1.year` to be `true`
and nonsensical ones like `30.days == 1.month` to be `false`.
Calculations on times and dates with durations shouldn't be affected as
duration's numeric value isn't used in calculations, only parts are used.
Methods on `Numeric` like `2.days` now use these predefined durations
to avoid duplicating of duration constants through the codebase and
eliminate creation of intermediate durations.
