Summary: Have mode for Rails Error Handling

Initial Comment:
Currently we default to raise an error as it happens.

There should be a way to use Rail's default error handling. This is needed to verify that error specific behaviour is occurring, such as exception notification.

To start things off, I added ActionController::Rescue#use_rails_error_handling! and ActionController::Rescue#use_rails_error_handling? to do this (Rev 2128).

Thoughts?

Message:
Well - maybe the exclamation point doesn't make sense except when the method is being called directly on ActionController::Rescue. But I think we should either always have the exclamation point or never. Otherwise it'll just get confusing.

Message:
Seems reasonable. I think that same method should then be made available via config:

Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
  config.use_rails_error_handling!
end

or directly in a given behaviour:

describe SomeController do
  use_rails_error_handling!
  ...
end

WDYT?
