Public bug reported:

TinyMCE Editors cannot be accessed by screen reader

Test environment: Chrome + Orca on Linux

To test:
- Turn on screen reader
- In Chrome browser, create a page and click 'Add' to add a new text block ('Add' button is also not accessible, this is reported here: Bug 1977892)
- Using the tab key, tab into the TinyMCE text editor

Expected result:
- Able to understand/use the text editor with impaired vision i.e. only using screen reader.

Actual result:
- When moving tab focus to the text editor, the screen reader just says 'Blank'

I see that TinyMCE has accessibility features:
https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/configure/accessibility/ - so hopefully we
can apply these to our implementation.
