test(examples): add wait and handler error test examples

Alex Wang · Alex Wang · commit c77182c65c0c · 2025-11-09T18:50:59.000-08:00
- Add testing examples
  - wait for condition
  - handler error

- Update wait example with Duration change
- Update web runner and workflow, only warning on error response so that we can test on funciton exception
