The session cookie's `secure` flag was hardcoded to `true`, which prevented browsers from storing cookies over plain `http://localhost`. This broke login redirect in local development because the sign-in API succeeded but the session was never established. Also adds error handling to the JWT `definePayload` function so a database failure during member role lookup degrades gracefully instead of returning a 500, and switches from raw SQL template to `eq()` for type safety. Improves the error handler to include request method and URL in log output for easier debugging.
Add method and url to mock request object and update the expected console.error call to include the request context prefix.
