Add missing api_controller that Rails 5 generator expects

[oyeanuj]

Purpose

This allows AMS 0.9x to be used with Rails 5, without any errors.

Changes

Added an api_controller.rb template that the Rails 5 Generator expects.

Caveats

This fixes the main issue that I was facing in #1923 but as I experiment more, there might be more issues getting Rails 5, AMS 0.9x to play well.

Thanks @bf4 @remear for your help debugging this issue.

@oyeanuj Sorry for the delay in responding to this: what's the error? I'm not sure why AMS should be adding a controller generator template

[oyeanuj]

@bf4 So, it seems that Rails 5 in API mode expects there to be these controller generators which were missing and causing errors mentioned in #1923.

Also, to point out that 0.9x already had controller template but it was named controller.rb. In API mode, it seems to expect the controller generator to be named as api_controller.rb.

@oyeanuj would you be up to rebase and force push this?

I think it might make more sense to avoid the api controller template. There's nothing different in it from the Rails default, right?

module Rails
  module Generators
    class ScaffoldControllerGenerator
-      if Rails::VERSION::MAJOR >= 4
+      if Rails::VERSION::MAJOR >= 4 && ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
