fix: improve task management in _log_transaction_async to avoid datab…

…ase locks (#5896)

* refactor: Update _log_transaction_async to be asynchronous and improve task management

- Changed _log_transaction_async method from synchronous to asynchronous to allow proper handling of transaction logging.
- Added error handling for task cancellation and ensured that pending tasks are managed correctly.
- Updated calls to _log_transaction_async in the ComponentVertex class to await the asynchronous method, ensuring proper flow execution and error handling.

* refactor: Simplify _log_transaction_async method by removing redundant error handling

- Streamlined the _log_transaction_async method to enhance readability and maintainability.
- Removed unnecessary try-except blocks for task cancellation, as the async context already handles task management effectively.
- Ensured that completed tasks are awaited and cleared properly, improving overall task management.

* fix: Correctly handle vertex build response in asynchronous flow construction

- Moved the retrieval of the vertex build response to occur after awaiting the build task, ensuring proper handling of task completion.
- Improved error handling by maintaining the cancellation logic while ensuring the response is only accessed after the task is completed.
- This change enhances the reliability of the flow construction process in the chat API.

* fix: Improve task management in Vertex class by refining log transaction handling

- Updated the log transaction handling in the Vertex class to await a single task instead of gathering all tasks, enhancing efficiency.
- Removed the clearing of the task list, ensuring that only the most recent task is processed, which simplifies the task management logic.
- This change aims to improve the reliability and performance of asynchronous logging in the flow execution.

* refactor: Comment out log transaction handling in Vertex class for future review
