Add FormsController base controller

stephencdaly · stephencdaly · commit a8ed704c9290 · 2026-03-10T11:30:52.000Z
Move form-specific methods from WebController into a new
FormsController which all controllers that handle ations related to
an individual form inherit from.

We need to add a new form-specific after_action and don't want to
further pollute WebController with form-specific code.
