refactor(tests): Eliminate test flakiness through deterministic implementation (#4708)

# Description of Changes

Updated test files to use fixed string identifiers and timestamps
instead of random UUIDs and system-dependent times. These changes make
the tests more deterministic and easier to debug.

**Test determinism and clarity improvements:**

* Replaced randomly generated UUIDs with fixed string identifiers in
test cases for `FileStorageTest.java` and `TaskManagerTest.java` to
ensure predictable test data.
* Changed usages of `System.currentTimeMillis()` and `Instant.now()` to
fixed values in tests for `TempFileCleanupServiceTest.java`,
`FileMonitorTest.java`, and `TextFinderTest.java` to avoid flakiness due
to timing issues.
* Improved code clarity by adding explanatory comments for time offsets
and by using direct string comparisons instead of `equals()` where
appropriate.
* Refactored a timeout simulation in `JobExecutorServiceTest.java` to
use busy-waiting instead of `Thread.sleep`, reducing test flakiness and
improving reliability.
