Description

We should provide a mode of operation where all transactions are synchronous.

Previously-async txns should then be replaced with synchronous txns with new wait = 'wal' mode, similar to already-existing wait = 'none/submit' (#10583)

In order to not break current clients we should introduce this mode under some compat or configuration option.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing transaction handling and the wait='none/submit' mode, then determine where a compatibility or configuration option would replace asynchronous transactions with wait='wal'. Done means the mode is defined without breaking current clients and has coverage for synchronous transaction behavior.
