Enhance expect alerts command

 * `cy.expect_show_list_title(title)` - check the title on a show\_list screen matches the provided title. `title`: String for the title.
 * `cy.expect_search_box()` - check if searchbox is present on the screen.
 * `cy.expect_text(element, text)` - check if the text in the element found by doing cy.get on the element String matches the provided text. `element`: String for the Cypress selector to get a specific element on the screen. `text`: String for the text that should be found within the selected element.
-* `cy.expect_flash(flashType, containsText)` - command to validate flash messages. `flashType` is the type of flash (success, warning, error, info). `containsText` is the optional text that the flash-message should contain. e.g. `expect_flash('warning', 'cancelled');`

 * `cy.expect_browser_confirm_with_text({ confirmTriggerFn, containsText, proceed })` - command to validate browser confirm alerts. `confirmTriggerFn` is the function that triggers the confirm dialog. This function **must return a Cypress.Chainable**, like `cy.get(...).click()` so that Cypress can properly wait and chain .then() afterward. `containsText` is the optional text that the confirm alert should contain. `proceed` is the flag to determine whether to proceed with the confirm (true = OK, false = Cancel). e.g. `cy.expect_browser_confirm_with_text({containsText: 'sure to proceed?', proceed: true, confirmTriggerFn: () => { return cy.get('[data-testid="delete"]').click()}});`, `cy.expect_browser_confirm_with_text({ confirmTriggerFn: () => cy.contains('deleted').click()});`
