Issue
https://otwarchive.atlassian.net/browse/AO3-6632
Purpose
Fix flaky collection anonymity tests by adding simulated delays before certain actions to ensure cache expiry and correct ordering of works sorted by age.
Testing Instructions
No manual QA required. I ran the test 50x here, with no failures. Before the fix, 50 runs resulted in a variety of failures, including in some tests in the same file that are not listed in the Jira issue. They are all fixed now.
