test: stabilise the partial-message preservation case

The 'partial message in chat input is preserved when prefilling'
case was flaking on CI. Three small changes:

- Seed the chat input with fill() rather than click() + keyboard.type().
  Earlier the test was racing chat.focus()'s own setTimeout(100) — when
  the keyboard.type started before that timer fired, the typing landed
  in whatever element had focus at the time, which wasn't always the
  chat input. fill() bypasses focus state entirely.
- Wait for the chat box to be visible before filling, so we don't race
  the chaticon click handler.
- Replace the two sequential expect/wait pairs after the daveRow click
  with one waitForFunction that asserts both 'hi there' and '@Dave' are
  in the input together. The prefill is async (setTimeout(50) inside
  the click handler), so a combined wait is more reliable than checking
  one piece, then snapshotting and asserting the other.

The other three cases in this file passed unchanged on CI; only this
fourth one was racy.
