Several screen reader improvements

Joshua Goins requested to merge work/redstrate/accessibility-improvements into master

I got around to trying Tokodon in a screen reader again, and boy do we need some work! Here's some improvements:

  • Remove the "Show Alt" button from the tab button order, because it's only for mouse/sighted users.
  • Improve sensitive media handling, aka don't read out NSFW alt text.
  • Announce standalone tag buttons as "tag buttons".
  • Announce the content notice to the screen reader.
  • Announce the interaction count for buttons (if enabled) to the screen reader.
  • Announce the post content to the screen reader, and strip out the HTML so it doesn't take ages to listen to a post.
