Do *NOT* SPeak: Wi-Fi Status connecting, connected, disconnected, offline

Project Member Reported by chaok@google.com, Jan 4 2017

Issue description

Mode: force_next
Version: 57.0.2951.0
Reproduction Steps: 
1. Enable ChromeVOx Next
2. Connect to a mobile hotspot
3. TOggle mobile hotspot off/on

Observed: disconnected, offline, connecting, connected, etc. messages are uttered by ChromeVox Next to let user know about Wi-Fi status
Expected: THese Wi-Fi status messages to not be spoken, as they're distracting and noise-pollution.

Note: I do understand the mobile hotspot toggling is an extreme case, but wanted a way with 100% repro. I observed this quite often while  stationary connected to a solid network, where the Wi-Fi may fluctuate  some, which doesn't impact Internet connectivity, but the Wi-Fi status is assertive about informing me about non-useful info.

I am experiencing the same issue and find the very frequent stream of updates to be annoying to the point of blocking my ability to work. Here's what I did:

# Launch ChromeVox with ctrl alt z
# Connect to a somewhat unstable wifi service (my desk is a good example)
# As the connectivity fluctuates, an announcement is made 
As a result, I have received ~1 dozen updates in a few minutes
