Suggestions UI is referred to as "List New Tab" in acessibility

Project Member Reported by bauerb@chromium.org, May 25 2017

Issue description

Steps to reproduce:
1) Turn on TalkBack
2) Open the suggestions UI
3) Focus a UI element (a tile or even the tab switcher button)

The element is refered to as "<something> in List New Tab", which doesn't make much sense. The "New Tab" part seems to come from the accessibility description of the SuggestionsRecyclerView (IDS_ACCESSIBILITY_NEW_TAB_PAGE), but I don't know where the "list" comes from (maybe because of the RecyclerView?).

Summary: Suggestions UI is referred to as "List New Tab" in acessibility (was: Suggestions UI is referted to as "List New Tab" in acessibility)
The "list" is because the focused item is part of a RecyclerView; there's nothing we can do about that, it's just standard Android behavior.

We should, however, consider changing the content description to "Suggestions" (instead of "New tab") when Chrome Home is enabled (or for both Chrome Home and Non-Chrome home).

bauerb@ - is this something the NTP team can handle since it's part of the suggestions UI?

Closing as the content description seems correct per comments in #3 and we stopped experimentation with Chrome Home.
