Added `aria-label`s to the chat navigation buttons and task action buttons to improve screen reader accessibility. Also added `aria-hidden="true"` to the internal icon font spans to prevent screen readers from reading the ligature text.

💡 What: Added
aria-labelandaria-hidden="true"to icon-only action buttons in the chat navigation and task list components.🎯 Why: To improve accessibility for screen reader users by providing descriptive labels for buttons that previously relied solely on visual icons or standard
titletooltips. This prevents the screen reader from announcing the raw ligature text (e.g., "keyboard arrow down").📸 Before/After: No visual changes.
♿ Accessibility: Screen readers will now announce "Scroll to top", "Previous user message", "Next user message", "Scroll to bottom", "View task details", "Clear task chat", and "Delete task" rather than reading out the icon ligature names or missing context.
