The helper moved to AbstractEHRTest so every EHR test suite can use it.
The pre-submit wait polled the summary for 30 seconds with no way to clear it; the shared wait re-validates once first.

## Rationale Gives the EHR test suites one way to wait out a data entry form's validation, so they stop failing on error messages that are stale rather than real. The form's error summary repaints on a buffered event rather than when the validation response lands, so a message can still be on screen after the value that raised it was accepted, and a test that simply waits for the text to disappear times out on a form that is already valid. Pointing the wait at the form's own validation state instead, and re-running validation once before giving up, is what the form itself tells a user to do. ## Related Pull Requests - [LabKey/nircEHRModules#763](LabKey/nircEHRModules#763) - [LabKey/nbriEHRModules#48](LabKey/nbriEHRModules#48) - [LabKey/johnsHopkinsEHRModules#692](LabKey/johnsHopkinsEHRModules#692) ## Changes - Add a validation wait to the EHR test base class that requires the form to be quiet, tolerates the error panel's repaint window, and re-runs validation once before failing. - Report nothing in flight when the form's scripting is not on the page, so a caller that reaches the wait mid-navigation does not fail outright. - Report that a form offers no way to re-run validation rather than failing on the absent menu item, so the failure names the message that would not clear.

Rationale
Removes this module's private copy of the form validation wait now that the same wait is available to every EHR suite from the test base class.

Changes
Drop the module's own copy of the validation wait in favour of the shared one, leaving its call sites unchanged.
Route the wait before submitting a form through the shared wait.
