Feature Request

This update is for:

What is the name

https://design.va.gov/components/loading-indicators

What is the nature of this update?

Additional Context

It would be great if there was more guidance in our design system regarding loading spinners - e.g. what should the copy say in various circumstances? How long should we allow a user to wait before we throw up an error? What's a standard pattern for loading after a user has clicked "submit" on a form versus simply waiting for a section of a page to load?

Discussed in design council meeting. This is in the DST backlog with low priority.
