fix(custom text modal): reset practise words on submit (@quiggleson) (#6927)
### Description

There was a bug in which the displayed text in the custom text modal was
not being saved when submitted. This occurred when users opened the
custom text modal while taking a test with practice words.

The new behavior is clicking "ok" in the custom text modal calls
`resetBefore()` from `practise-words.ts` to prevent the test from
reverting to the previous list of words.

### Tests
|Action|Behavior|
|---|---|
|Submit some text in the custom text modal without practicing words|The
text in the modal's text area is displayed in the test|
|Submit some text in the custom text modal during a test with practice
words|The text in the modal's text area is displayed in the test|
|set the custom text to practice words twice in a row|The text in the
modal's text area is displayed in the test|
|change the custom text during a test with practice words|The text in
the modal's text area is displayed in the test|
