ModuleAPI: overwrite_login action was not stopping the existing cli…

…ent resulting in the action failing with rust-sdk (#12272)

* Fix overwrite login action not stopping client

* remove unneeded fixture for overwrite login test

* Fix playwrite bad import of app sources

* revert uneeded change on fore OnLoggedIn causing side effects

* Add unit test for overwrite login action

* remove un needed ts-ignore
