test: harden click_modal backdrop wait and open_query_tool stale-element retry

click_modal: wait up to 5s for the MuiDialog-backdrop to become
invisible after clicking the modal button. MUI v7 leaves the backdrop
in the DOM during the ~300ms close animation, which intercepts the
next click in tests that chain modal->modal interactions.

open_query_tool: the execute-query toolbar button can re-render between
the visibility wait and the ActionChains.move_to_element call
(Firefox/geckodriver hits this regularly). Retry the move up to 3
times on StaleElementReferenceException, refetching the element each
attempt rather than reusing a stale handle.

Both changes are pure test-side stability fixes; no production code
or behavior is affected.
