Address PR feedback about potential race condition. The code now checks if `window.wp.ajax.send` and `window.wp.ajax.post` are functions before wrapping them. This prevents TypeError when calling the wrapped function if the original method was undefined during configuration. Update tests to verify that missing methods remain undefined rather than being wrapped with an undefined reference.

This addresses PR review feedback about a potential race condition. If
window.wp.ajax.sendorwindow.wp.ajax.postare undefined whenconfigureAjax()executes, the wrapped function would throw aTypeErrorwhen invoked (calling.call()on undefined).References: #181
