Research direction
Start by tracing the existing on_server_error :first_callback path and how database errors are currently surfaced by the Rails library. Determine which database constraint errors should become validation errors and what the resulting JSON:API error behavior should be; done means the behavior is defined and covered by the relevant tests.

Description
Currently, when an error comes from the database, the only way to handle it is to use on_server_error :first_callback. This is not easy to use when we are only talking about invalid attributes.
Features:
Sometimes, db constraints are more efficient that validation. Then why not transform database constraint error into validation error.
