Makes possible to build associated object without affecting to parent object's association scope:

user = User.first

## Regular build, user.roles.size going to be incremented
new_role = user.roles.build

## Soft build, user.roles.size will stay as is
new_role = user.roles.soft_build
# or
new_role = user.association(:roles).soft_build
# or
new_role = user.roles.where(name: 'admin').soft_build
