Omnibox screen reader access: speak answer text when selected in suggestions

Project Member Reported by aleventhal@chromium.org, Nov 22 2017

Issue description

The omnibox can provide helpful answer text right in the suggestion. For example, "Weather in Boston" will lead to a suggestion with the current weather.

This text is not currently spoken by screen readers.

  https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/b5ad3ab3208d8bd57ce0ceb4dec117a637a0bc44

commit b5ad3ab3208d8bd57ce0ceb4dec117a637a0bc44
Author: Aaron Leventhal <aleventhal@chromium.org>
Date: Thu Dec 07 16:51:25 2017

Friendly screen reader experience for searches with immediate answers

When a suggested search match in the omnibox popup has an immediate answer,
add this to the friendly accessible screen reader label.

For example, typing "weath" will produce something like:
"Weather Answer 42 degrees" rather than just "Weather".
