Title:
  Initials when searching for users should have descriptive hidden text

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When searching for users in Administration -> User search there is an option to filter by first or last initial. However, the links for both contain only the letter and no other description, so for screen reader users it can be hard to tell whether (for example) an "F" link will filter by first name or last name.
  Either descriptive hidden text should be added to each initial, or the links should use aria-labelledby to link to the label at the start of the row.

  Affects latest master (using Orca 3.10.1)

  (WCAG Level AAA)
