Polling Confirmations

Preliminary implementation of polling expectations

Make Polling into a function along the lines of Confirmation
Additionally, make PollingBehavior an implementation detail of polling, instead of exposed publicly
Removes any timeouts involved for polling, as they become increasingly unreliable
as the system runs more and more tests

Take in configuration arguments, add polling interval

Add traits for configuring polling

Use consistent naming between confirmAlwaysPasses and the related configuration trait
Stop unnecessarily waiting after the last polling attempt has finished.
Allow for subsequent polling configuration traits which specified nil for a value to fall back to earlier polling configuration traits before falling back to the default.

Add requirePassesEventually and requireAlwaysPasses
These two mirror their confirm counterparts, only throwing an error (instead of recording an issue) when they fail.

Rewrite confirmPassesEventually when returning an optional to remove the PollingRecorder actor.
Now, this uses a separate method for evaluating polling to remove that actor.

Clean up the duplicate Poller.evaluate/Poller.poll methods
Removed the duplicate poll method, and made evaluate-returning-bool into a wrapper for evaluate-returning-optional

Configure polling confirmations as timeout & polling interval
This is less direct, but much more intuitive for test authors.
Also add exit tests confirming that these values are non-negative

Rename to actually use the confirmation name
Follow more english-sentence-like guidance for function naming
Simplify the polling confirmation API down to just 2 public functions, 1 enum, and 1 error type.
Always throw an error when polling fails, get rid of the separate issue recording.

Use a single polling confirmation configuration trait
Instead of mulitple traits per stop condition, just have a single trait
per stop condition.
