.SYNOPSIS
Creates and returns a SQL Server transaction object for batch operations.
 
.DESCRIPTION
Creates a SQL Server database connection and transaction object that can be used
for batch operations. The caller is responsible for committing or rolling back
the transaction. Requires an existing SQL Server database and connection.
 
.PARAMETER ConnectionString
The SQL Server connection string for database access.
 
.PARAMETER DatabaseName
The name of the SQL Server database. Used with Server parameter to create connection string.
 
.PARAMETER Server
The SQL Server instance name. Defaults to 'localhost'.
 
.PARAMETER IsolationLevel
Transaction isolation level. Defaults to ReadCommitted.
 
.PARAMETER CreateDatabaseIfNotExists
Whether to create the database file if it doesn't exist. Defaults to true.
 
.PARAMETER ForceConsent
Force a consent prompt even if a preference is already set for SQL Server package
installation, overriding any saved consent preferences.
 
.PARAMETER ConsentToThirdPartySoftwareInstallation
Automatically consent to third-party software installation and set a persistent
preference flag for SQL Server package, bypassing interactive consent prompts.
 
.EXAMPLE
$transaction = Get-SQLServerTransaction -Server "localhost" -DatabaseName "MyDatabase"
try {
    Invoke-SQLServerQuery -Transaction $transaction -Queries "INSERT INTO Users..."
    Invoke-SQLServerQuery -Transaction $transaction -Queries "UPDATE Users..."
    $transaction.Commit()
} catch {
    $transaction.Rollback()
    throw
} finally {
    $transaction.Connection.Close()
}
 
.EXAMPLE
$transaction = Get-SQLServerTransaction -ConnectionString "Server=localhost;Database=MyDB;Integrated Security=true"
 
.EXAMPLE
$transaction = Get-SQLServerTransaction -Server "localhost" -DatabaseName "MyDatabase" -ConsentToThirdPartySoftwareInstallation
