Chris Raible a8e1a707d5 🐛 Fixed race condition when updating member's last_seen_at timestamp (#20389)
ref
https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/ENG-1240/race-condition-when-updating-members-last-seen-at-timestamp

When members click a link in an email, Ghost updates the member's
`last_seen_at` timestamp, but it should only update the timestamp if the
member hasn't yet been seen in the current day (based on the
publication's timezone).

Currently there is a race condition present where multiple simultaneous
requests from the same member (if e.g. an email link checker is
following all links in an email) can cause the `last_seen_at` timestamp
to be updated multiple times in the same day for the same member. These
additional queries add a significant load on Ghost and its database,
which can contribute to the exhaustion of the connection pool and
eventually requests may time out.

The primary motivation for this change is to avoid that race condition
by adding a lock to the member row, checking if `last_seen_at` has
already been updated in the current day, and only updating it if it
hasn't.

Another beneficial side-effect of this change is that it avoids locking
the `labels` and `newsletters` tables, which are locked when we update
the `last_seen_at` timestamp in the `members` table currently. This
should improve Ghost's ability to handle a large influx of requests to
redirect endpoints (confirmed with load tests), which tend to happen
immediately after a publisher sends an email.
