Title:
  [SRU] Make Orca read associated keybindings for actions

  Fix Released
Status in gtk4 source package in Noble:
  Fix Released
Status in gtk4 source package in Oracular:
  Fix Released
Status in gtk4 source package in Plucky:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Orca, the screen reader, does not read keybindings in actions that
  provide them in GTK applications.

  [Test plan]

  Reproduce the bug:

  1.1. Exceute 'orca'.
  1.2. Execute 'nautilus'.
  1.3. Click the button with three horizontal lines in the left side bar.
  1.4. Verify that the screen reader reads the actions' names but not the keybindings listed in them. For example, for the first it raeads "New Window", not "New Window Ctrl+N".

  Install the libgtk-4-1 and libgtk-4-common package updates from
  proposed. Consult https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed if
  needed.

  Verify the bug is fixed:

  2.1. Exceute 'orca'.
  2.2. Execute 'nautilus'.
  2.3. Click the button with three horizontal lines in the left side bar.
  2.4. Verify that the screen reader reads the actions' names and the keybindings listed in them. For example, for the first it reads "New Window Ctrl+N".

  [Where problems could occur]

  Regressions could be observed in the screen reading of GTK4
  applications, in particular in reading of actions
  (https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/actions.html).

  [Other info]

  This does not only affect Nautilus, but any GTK4 application, e.g.
  Gnome-text-editor, Gnome-clocks etc.

  The fix is a cherry-pick of an upstream commit that already made it
  into 25.04, so I already set that as "fix released".

  Already built in 24.10 and 24.04 and tested in 24.04:
