Use aria-describedby to link form errors to inputs (Bug #1273841)

New element_descriptors() method in pieforms to return a list of HTML IDs
which describe the given element (description, error or both) used by all
pieforms types which can logically use aria-describedby for some or all of
their elements.

Title:
  Specific form errors should be linked with ARIA

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  For sighted users, form errors which appear beside their associated
  fields are easy to see and correct, but it's not the case for screen
  reader users. These errors should be linked with aria-describedby in a
  similar way to element descriptions, so that screen reader users can
  more easily find and fix errors.
