Change SetFromFlag tests
This PR just changes tests, to stop testing things that we shouldn't
support!
We should stop supporting `@SetFromFlag` on entity fields. It's been
discouraged for a long time, and is a bad idea - one should use config keys and
sensors instead! Unfortunately it's not as easy to tell people to not use it on
policies, enrichers and locations - those don't have sensors!
In a subsequent PR, I'm going to add support for `deprecatedNames` on
`ConfigKey`. Removing the need to support `@SetFromFlag` on entity fields will
allow config code to be made simpler longer term.
Here, I change the `EntitySetFromFlagTest` (which uses `@SetFromFlag` on
fields) to be `PolicySetFromFlagTest`.
This PR also changes `StubContainerLocation` (which is a test class) to
remove the field `@SetFromFlag("owner") private StubContainer owner`. There is
a config key on its super type `DynamicLocation.OWNER` that has the name
"owner". Two reasons to change this:
1. we shouldn't support `@SetFromFlag` on entity fields.
2. people shouldn't rely on using a duplicate name of a config key and a
field (or on two different config keys, or whatever). That's mad! The semantics
of what it would mean if you subsequent change one of the values is unclear
(e.g. does it impact the other config key).
