ChromeVox does not announce position, autohide status of shelf

Project Member Reported by kjbooker@chromium.org, Oct 1

Issue description

Chrome Version: 70.0.3538.16 (official build) dev (64-bit)
Firmware version:  Google_Eve.9584.160.0
Google Chrome	71.0.3558.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Firmware Version	Google_Caroline.7820.384.0

Repro steps:
# Change the shelf status either to auto hide or to move to left or right. Set the shelf to auto hide by right clicking on the shelf itself and selecting "autohide shelf" and similar for moving shelf to left or right. Note that there isn't a way to do this yet with the keyboard per  bug 888631 

Expected: ChromeVox announces the changed position or status since it can affect the touch interactions. 
Actual: no announcement, ChromeVox user has no way to know shelf position or autohide status after the change has been made.

Currently, after user selects a position, ChromeVox says "Landscape", regardless of which position user picks. Instead, ChromeVox should say "Left" / "Right" / "Bottom".


With autohide, currently there is no auditory feedback from ChromeVox. It should say "Shelf autohidden" and "Shelf always shown" after selected.

Assigning to Laura to confirm the wording, and adding eng.
