📄 Description

In middleware.py, the ASYNC_CHAT_SAVING_ENABLED environment variable has been introduced to control the enabling of the asynchronous background database saving feature for chats, addressing the output speed decrease caused by database latency as discussed in #8088.

In the video, the change in the output speed of the same model is demonstrated after toggling the ASYNC_CHAT_SAVING_ENABLED feature, with time.sleep(0.1) used to simulate database latency.
