Template details defined in strings should either throw or be accepted correctly.

[axos88]

Steps to reproduce

• Create a template app/views/foo/bar.text.erb

details = { locale: ['en'], formats: ['text'], handlers: ['erb'], variants: []}
ActionController::Base.view_paths.find('bar', 'foo', false, details, nil, [])

Expected behavior

Rails should either throw an exception saying that details must be supplied as symbols, or the template should be correctly returned

Actual behavior

Silently fails to find the otherwise existing template, specifying the correct directory it the file resides in. Confustion intensifies.

System configuration

Rails version: 7.0.3 Ruby version: 2.7.6

It's not really clear to me what the issue is here... would it be possible to make a simple replication app that shows the issue? Then we can clone it, replicate it, and test fixes against it.

Based on this seemingly related issue https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/45636, I think this issue is implying that 'text' needs to be :text (same with :erb), and that either the string should work, or the method should error explaining that it needs to be a symbol instead because rendering a template not found error is confusing.
