Description
### Bug description
**What happened?**
In the anemoi codebase - we use the pytorch lightning MlflowLogger and we hit this error when logging this to a remote server with a postgresql database:
`mlflow.exceptions.RestException: BAD_REQUEST: (raised as a result of Query-invoked autoflush; consider using a session.no_autoflush block if this flush is occurring prematurely)
(psycopg2.errors.UniqueViolation) duplicate key value violates unique constraint "metric_pk"
DETAIL: Key (key, "timestamp", step, run_uuid, value, is_nan)=(lr-AdamW, 1741862947817, 60899, 843c1331fefa436bab56485cfc5bc16e, 0.000322870392593084, f) already exists.`

Research direction
Start with training/src/anemoi/training/diagnostics/mlflow/logger.py and review how the MlflowLogger records the lr-AdamW metric. Reproduce the reported duplicate-key error against a remote PostgreSQL database using MLflow 2.22.0 and PyTorch Lightning 2.5.1; done means the metric can be logged without the metric_pk violation.
