As per RUBY-3620, when using a Session transaction, there is no easy way to "escape" out of that transaction on the thread** and execute a one-off query. This is useful when you have queries that you want to execute regardless of whether the transaction succeeds or fails.
This PR adds
Mongo::Session.escape { }
to force executing queries outside the transaction.(**you can spawn a new thread as a hacky workaround, but this comes with a host of it's own problems, such as needing to transfer in thread-specific state such as I18n.locale or Time.zone)
