Can not use "request" as argument

[erikaxel]

Steps to reproduce

Having request as a argument to a component fails, eg

class ExampleComponent < ViewComponent::Base
  def initialize(request:)
    @request = request
  end
end

Running render(ExampleComponent.new(request: "My Title"))
will result in:

private method `format' called for an instance of String

A repo with the error is at https://github.com/erikaxel/view_component-request-bug-replica

System configuration

Using request worked before version 3.15, my assumption is that #2079 is the culprit.

@erikaxel Thanks for opening this! Can you share a full backtrace?

Yeah, sorry for not including it in the original bug report. Here is the one from the demo repo:
