Maintain Rails 4.2 compatibility

[astupka]

This PR patches the active record adapter to work with 4.2. The two issues were originally noticed by @clinejj

#857
#858

Getting errors with some tests needing sqllite 1.4.4 though:

Update:
Need to fix tests in rails 5.2, 6, and 6.1. Appears to be a setup issue since Rails::VERSION::MAJOR is definitely still defined in Rails 6.

Loading staging environment (Rails 6.0.0)
irb(main):001:0> Rails::VERSION::MAJOR
=> 6

SQLITE3_VERSION='2.0.1' bundle exec rake

Thanks @astupka. Below are a few suggestions. Have you run the tests against 4.2?

If you get the tests passing I'm happy to merge this since it's minimal changes, but I can't guarantee that 4.2 won't break again soon. We have plans to drop support Rails 5.2 and 6.0 soon too (#776). If your team is interested in an LTS version of Flipper, we would consider offering a paid version. But we can't sustain supporting 10 years of Rails versions for free. Send us an email at support@flippercloud.io if you want to talk more about it.

Suggested change

	Rails::VERSION::MAJOR * 10 + Rails::VERSION::MINOR > 42
	Rails.version.to_f > 4.2

If version detection is the only way, this to_f trick is a nice way to get the major/minor version.

Suggested change

	select_method = rails_version_over_4_2? ? :select_rows : :select_all
	select_method = respond_to?(:select_rows, true) ? :select_rows : :select_all

Instead of version detection, can this use feature detection here?
