🎯 Overview
This PR implements a safe transactional rollback mechanism for database migrations. It ensures that if any step within a migration execution fails, the active transaction is explicitly rolled back to prevent leaving the database in a dirty or partially migrated state.
🛠️ Changes Made
Implemented db.BeginTx() for atomic migration execution.
Added a deferred rollback block (defer tx.Rollback()) to handle cleanup safely and log non-sql.ErrTxDone errors.
Ensured transaction locks and database connections are properly released on failure.
Guaranteed that failed migrations are not marked as applied in the database metadata.
🧪 Testing & Verification
Tested transaction behavior on migration failures to ensure zero schema side effects.
Verified that connection leaks do not occur after multiple consecutive migration failures.
