ODD Protocol Setup with loop and runtime parameters (Flex 9.1.2-alpha.1)

Touchscreen Protocol Setup smoke for AUTH-3041. Alpha.1 cherry-picked useMemo around protocol-modules and labware grouping so setup screens do not re-render excessively when a protocol uses loops and runtime parameters (RTP). This is the primary new test surface in v9.1.2-alpha.1 versus alpha.0.
