Rails.root nil for config.before_configuration in Rails 4.1

[bpardee]

In Rails 4.1RC2, the value of Rails.root is nil in the config.before_configuration block so your railtie fails to configure. Maybe change to before_initialize?

See Shopify/shopify_app#71

It has to be in 'config.before_configuration' since configuration files can contain encrypted passwords that have to be decrypted with SymmetricEncryption. Have to figure out some kind of workaround for this change

My config/database.yml works okay if I change it to before_initialize

Fixed via rails/rails@e1404ec. Hopefully this makes it into the 4.1 official release.
