Public bug reported:

The "form change checker" is the Javascript system that we use to detect
unsaved changes in a form. If you make changes in a Mahara form and then
navigate away from the page without submitting or cancelling the form,
it shows a popup that says something like "This page is asking you to
confirm that you want to leave - data you have entered may not be
saved."

The bug here, is that on the page builder screen, you can either close a
block configuration modal window by hitting "Cancel" (or "Delete") on
the bottom of the form, or by clicking an "X" button in the upper-left
hand corner of the modal. If you make changes to the form and then hit
the "X" button, the form change checker doesn't get cleared, which means
that subsequently when you try to navigate away from the screen, you'll
see the warning message about unsaved changes.

To replicate:

1. Open a page for editing
2. Put a Text block into the page (or edit an existing text block)
3. Change the block's "Retractable" setting.
4. Click the "X" button in the upper-left of the modal
5. Press F5 to reload the page (or click a link to navigate to another page)

Expected result: You should not see a warning message, because you don't have any unsaved changes.
Actual result: You see the form change checker's warning message.
