3 database commands in msfconsole check for framework.db.driver to be
set, so driver must be set when the connection is already established by
the Rails initialization.

Rescue `ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished` in
`Msf::DBManager#connection_established?` in addition to
`PG::ConnectionBad` to handle when the connection has been removed.
linux throws a different exception than osx
when the vnc client fails to connect
this caused issues with the specs running. this now
catches that additional exception
MSP-9653
Rails::Engine version of Metasploit::Framework::Application that can be
used by downstream projects, like Pro to get the shared behaviors, like
modules path adding, meterpreter extension merging, and binary default
encoding.
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.

Calling `ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection`, followed by
`ActiveRecord::Base.connected?` returns false unless some other code
requires a connection to be checked out first. The correct way to check
if the spec passed to `ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection` is to
checkout a connection and then ask if it is active.
`Msf::DBManager#connection_established?` does the checkout, active check
and checkin, and should be used in place of
`ActiveRecord::Base.connected?` and
`ActiveRecord::Base.connection_pool.connected?`.
`Msf::DBManager#active` should still be used as it also checks for
adapter/driver usability and that migrations have run.
MSP-9653
lib/msfenv.rb should only load the framework environment to initialize
Metasploit::Framework::Application if a Rails.application is not
defined, otherwise it will clash with the Rails application in prosvc.
MSP-9653
Allow rails engines (and other applications, like
Metasploit::Pro::Engine::Application) to define their own module paths
using the paths['modules'] entry for Rails Applications/Engines.
