This reverts commit 6494603510, reversing
changes made to 5d3b8f8030.
By defining the missing constant early in startup we can force
reline to detect Fiddle as version '0.0.0' when the class is provide
by a Ruby 2.x implementation that has an documented version.

Test the following paths in order and only return them if the path
exists:
1. MSF_DATABASE_CONFIG environment variable
2. ~/.msf4/database.yml
3. <project>/config/database.yml
MSP-10848
Use these locations, in order for
Metasploit::Framework::Application.config.paths['config/database']:
1. MSF_DATABASE_CONFIG environment variable
2. ~/.msf4/database.yml (if it exists)
3. config/database.yml

Other railties, like jquery-rails, need 'action_view/railtie', but don't
require it themselves, so require it explictly in
`config/application.rb` to prevent msfconsole boot errors.
MSP-9653
Extra config and initializers that can we shared between
Metasploit::Framework::Application and the future
Metasploit::Framework::Engine. Move the default encoding setup from
lib/msf/sanity.rb to a before_initialize callback for the shared config
so that gems, like gherkin that depend on the utf-8 default internal
encoding can be loaded.
MSP-9606
Catch LoadError in config/application.rb when trying to require
'active_record/railtie` so that end-users can run without any of the
database gems installed. NOTE: you can't run in the development or
test environment without the database because factory_girl needs
ActiveRecord.
MSP-9606
In order to support Metasploit::Credential correctly,
metasploit-framework needs to support Metasploit::Concern, which does
all its magic using a Rails::Engine initializer, so the easiest path is
to make metasploit-framework be able to use Rails::Engines. To make
Rails::Engine use Rails::Engine, make a dummy Rails::Application
subclass so that all the initializers will be run when anything requires
msfenv.
