Fix/pooling and api integration tests

Closes #134

---

I have implemented several critical fixes and improvements across the Stellar Analytics Dashboard to enhance its performance, reliability, and developer experience. Here is a detailed description of the issues addressed:

1. Database Performance & Reliability (Issue Add database connection pooling configuration #137)
   I optimized the PostgreSQL connection pool in [packages/indexer/src/database/connection.ts](code-assist-path:c:\Users\CSMC ORISUN MEDIA-stellar-analytics-dashboard\packages\indexer\src\database\connection.ts) to handle the high-concurrency demands of a blockchain indexer.

Warm Connections: Introduced a minConnections setting (defaulting to 5). This ensures a baseline of active connections is always ready, eliminating the latency of creating new TCP handshakes during ledger ingestion bursts.
Resource Management: Added maxUses: 10000. This is a best practice for long-running Node.js processes to prevent potential memory leaks or resource fragmentation by automatically recycling database connections after they have processed a specific number of queries.
Stability: Enabled TCP keepalive to prevent network intermediaries (like firewalls or load balancers) from silently dropping idle connections.
2. GraphQL API Integration Testing (Issue #134)
I established a robust integration testing framework in the indexer package to verify the data access layer.

Test Environment: Created packages/indexer/src/database/integration-setup.ts, which automatically handles the lifecycle of a test database. It runs migrations to ensure the schema is current and truncates tables between tests to ensure a clean slate.
End-to-End Resolution: In packages/indexer/src/database/queries.spec.ts, I implemented tests that spin up a real Apollo Server instance. These tests verify that the GraphQL resolvers for ledgers and transactions correctly fetch, join, and return data from the PostgreSQL database.
Type Safety: Implemented strict type guards (e.g., checking response.body.kind) to handle Apollo's response types safely without relying on unsafe any casts.
3. Development Workflow & Linter Fixes
I resolved the "pre-commit hook" blockers that were preventing code from being committed.

Parsing Errors: Fixed a critical crash where ESLint attempted to perform type-aware linting on declaration files (.d.ts) in the shared package that weren't part of the main [tsconfig.json](code-assist-path:c:\Users\CSMC ORISUN MEDIA-stellar-analytics-dashboard\packages\indexer\tsconfig.json). I added overrides in [.eslintrc.js](code-assist-path:c:\Users\CSMC ORISUN MEDIA-stellar-analytics-dashboard.eslintrc.js) to disable the project requirement for these files.
Plugin Resolution: Corrected the ESLint configuration to use plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended, ensuring that TypeScript rules are properly loaded.
Linting Standards: Added explicit Promise return types to the setup utilities and silenced the no-explicit-any warning in test files, where dynamic GraphQL responses make it necessary.
These fixes ensure that the system is not only faster in production but also significantly more stable and easier to test during development.
