Title: Generate shallow paths for all children of shallow resources.

Prior to this commit shallow resources would only generate paths for non-direct children (with a nested depth greater than 1).

Take the following routes file.

resources :blogs do
resources :posts, shallow: true do
resources :comments do
resources :tags
end
end
end

This would generate shallow paths for `tags` nested under `posts`, e.g `/posts/:id/tags/`, however it would not generate shallow paths for `comments` nested under `posts`, e.g `/posts/:id/comments/new`.

This commit changes the behaviour of the route mapper so that it generate paths for direct children of shallow resources, for example if you take the previous routes file, this will now generate shallow paths for `comments` nested under `posts`, .e.g `posts/:id/comments/new`.

This was the behaviour in Rails `4.0.4` however this was broken in @jcoglan's fix for another routes related issue[1].
