Ambiguous purpose of InfoBar close button in TalkBack

Project Member Reported by wychen@chromium.org, Oct 18 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version: M64
OS: Android

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Enable TalkBack and Chrome Home
(2) Trigger any infobar to show up
(3) Focus on the Chrome Home bar by long pressing it. Use linear navigation (swiping from right to left) to move backward to the infobar. The focus should be on the close button.

What is the expected result?
The purpose of the close button should be more clear. Announcing the title of the infobar should help. For example, "close translate button, double tap to activate".

What happens instead?
A generic name "close button" is announced. The user might not know what would be closing.

The accessibility string is the same when Chrome Home is off, but linear navigation would traverse through the content of the infobar before reaching the close button, so the context should be more clear.

In general, what to close is announced, like closing tab in Clank, or closing an app in Android. We don't have the title string for most of our infobars though.
