Merge branch 'deprecate-calculations-with-block'

Follow up of the discussion from the original merge commit:
rails@f9cb645#commitcomment-1414561

We want to avoid people's mistakes with methods like count and sum when
called with a block, that can easily lead to code performing poorly and
that could be way better written with a db query.

Please check the discussion there for more background.
Closes rails#8268

 ## Rails 4.0.0 (unreleased) ##
 
+*   Deprecate calling `Relation#sum` with a block. To perform a calculation over
+    the array result of the relation, use `to_a.sum(&block)`.

+    *Carlos Antonio da Silva*

 *   Fix postgresql adapter to handle BC timestamps correctly

     *Marc-André Lafortune*
 
-*   Allow blocks for `count` with `ActiveRecord::Relation`, to work similar as
-    `Array#count`:
-
-        Person.where("age > 26").count { |person| person.gender == 'female' }
-
-    *Chris Finne & Carlos Antonio da Silva*
-
 *   Added support to `CollectionAssociation#delete` for passing `fixnum`
     or `string` values as record ids. This finds the records responding
     to the `id` and executes delete on them.
