6de4737b70 Allow different default locales per tenant
Note that, for everything to work consistently, we need to make sure
that the default locale is one of the available locales.

Also note that we aren't overwriting the `#save ` method set by
globalize. I didn't feel too comfortable changing a monkey-patch which
ideally shouldn't be there in the first place, I haven't found a case
where `Globalize.locale` is `nil` (since it defaults to `I18n.locale`,
which should never be `nil`), so using `I18n.default_locale` probably
doesn't affect us.

647121d13e Allow different locales per tenant
Note that, currently, we take these settings from the database but we
don't provide a way to edit them through the admin interface, so the
locales must be manually introduced through a Rails console.

While we did consider using a comma-separated list, we're using spaces
in order to be consistent with the way we store the allowed content
types settings.

The `enabled_locales` nomenclature, which contrasts with
`available_locales`, is probably subconsciously based on similar
patterns like the one Nginx uses to enable sites.

Note that we aren't using `Setting.enabled_locales` in the globalize
initializer when setting the fallbacks. This means the following test
(which we could add to the shared globalizable examples) would fail:

```
it "Falls back to an enabled locale if the fallback is not enabled" do
  Setting["locales.default"] = "en"
  Setting["locales.enabled"] = "fr en"
  allow(I18n.fallbacks).to receive(:[]).and_return([:fr, :es])
  Globalize.set_fallbacks_to_all_available_locales

  I18n.with_locale(:fr) do
    expect(record.send(attribute)).to eq "In English"
  end
end
```

The reason is that the code making this test pass could be:

```
def Globalize.set_fallbacks_to_all_available_locales
  Globalize.fallbacks = I18n.available_locales.index_with do |locale|
    ((I18n.fallbacks[locale] & Setting.enabled_locales) + Setting.enabled_locales).uniq
  end
end
```

However, this would make it impossible to run `rake db:migrate` on new
applications because the initializer would try to load the `Setting`
model but the `settings` table wouldn't exist at that point.

Besides, this is a really rare case that IMHO we don't need to support.
For this scenario, an installation would have to enable a locale, create
records with contents in that locale, then disable that locale and have
that locale as a fallback for a language where content for that record
wasn't created. If that happened, it would be solved by creating content
for that record in every enabled language.
