 *   await this.connection.commitOpenTransaction(ctx);

 * Note that even in manual mode, a rollback will be automatically performed in
 * the case that an uncaught error is thrown within the resolver.

 * QueryRunner is used to execute the queries within this transaction.
 *
 * Essentially, the entire resolver function is wrapped in a try-catch block which commits the
 * transaction on successful completion of the method, or rolls back the transaction in an unhandled
 * error is thrown.
 *
 * @example
 * ```ts
 * // in a GraphQL resolver file
 *
 * \@Transaction()
 * async myMutation(\@Ctx() ctx: RequestContext) {
 *   // as long as the `ctx` object is passed in to
 *   // all database operations, the entire mutation
 *   // will be run as an atomic transaction, and rolled
 *   // back if an error is thrown.
 *   const result = this.myService.createThing(ctx);
