What are you trying to accomplish?

In Rails 7.2 the internal attributes_to_define_after_schema_loads method has been removed and as it was considered internal only, it is not planned to be replaced. We rely on that method to hook into the schema loading of our fake Tableless models by manually attaching attributes and overwriting the column cache for it.

We can achieve the same thing, by directly defining the attributes and completely skipping the schema loading by making load_schema! a no-op and manually creating a column cache.

It has been extracted from #17228 as there are more things that block the upgrade to Rails 7.2, but we can already do this here to validate with all tests that the tableless models still work as intended.
