Enough SQL requests piling up can exhaust the tokio worker pool waiting to acquire a transaction lock. Move `begin_mut_tx` to the blocking pool instead.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't think we should be using asyncify on the database cores, at least currently, as they aren't properly configured with blocking threads. Probably the way to fix this is just to actually configure the blocking threads, with a sensible number of them and with appropriate core pinning.

I'm also confused by your PR description. This function runs on the database cores, so there should only be one Tokio worker, right? |

Ah right, I had actually discarded this after realizing it's not the main runtime. |
