Document stale schema on 16.2 upgrade
What does this MR do and why?
See #427489 (closed) for more details, but this problem occurs only on no-downtime deployments.
Active Record caches the database schema in memory and it doesn't include the columns that have non-changed database values in the insert statements. The migrations are executed after the deployment and the schema is stale, needing an additional restart to refresh it.
Screenshots or screen recordings
Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.
