Remove code duplication
Merge pull request #10331 from neerajdotname/exec-migration-in-transaction

Remove code duplication
Fix a SystemStackError that occurs when using time zone aware attributes.

This fixes issue #10066
Added testcase for #10067 and a CHANGELOG entry about this change.
Use DatabaseTasks.fixtures_path instead of FIXTURES_PATH in db.rake

This will allow to set fixtures path in global config easier, it should
be not needed to use FIXTURES_PATH every time user wants to load
fixtures.
Add some documentation to ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks

This is a public class, which could be used directly in order to allow
easier database management. Now it also contains settings, which will be
used by databases.rake.
Don't require Rails.env in order to use AR::Tasks::DatabaseTasks
Move CHANGELOG entry for db.rake improvements to 4.0.0
Merge pull request #10330 from kennyj/fix_10067

Serialized column should not be wrapped twice. Fix #10067.

Use env == 'development' instead of env.development?

It's simpler to assume that passed env is just a string without any
extensions, especially when DatabaseTasks are intended to be used also
without rails.
