 DEV: Prefer RSpec primitives for test setup (#42122) 
RSpec setup becomes harder to follow at either extreme: trivial fixture
wrappers hide lifecycle and intent, while forcing every named operation
inline repeats low-level protocol and configuration details.

This change documents and applies a test-setup hierarchy:

- use `fab!`, `let`, `let!`, `subject`, and inline `Fabricate` according
to lifecycle and role;
- use a small example-group method when parameterized behavior gives one
spec useful vocabulary;
- move helpers into auto-loaded `spec/support` only when they are shared
across spec files;
- use fabricators and page objects for the data shapes and system-test
interfaces they own.

Core and plugin support files are loaded centrally by `rails_helper`, so
plugin-specific support loaders are unnecessary. The migration specs
encountered during the sweep are removed according to repository policy;
production migrations are unchanged.
