Issue number: internal --------- <!-- Please do not submit updates to dependencies unless it fixes an issue. --> <!-- Please try to limit your pull request to one type (bugfix, feature, etc). Submit multiple pull requests if needed. --> ## What is the current behavior? <!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. --> Screen readers do not announce helper and error text when user is focused on the input or textarea. This does not align with the accessibility guidelines. ## What is the new behavior? <!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by this PR. --> - The appropriate `aria` tags are added to the native input and textarea in order to associate them to the helper and error texts. - `aria-describedBy` will only be added to the native element based on helper or error text. If helper text exists then the helper text ID will be used. If the error text exists and the component has the `ion-touched ion-invalid` classes, then the error text ID will be used. - `aria-invalid` will only be added if the error text exists and the component has the `ion-touched ion-invalid` classes. - Added tests. ## Does this introduce a breaking change? - [ ] Yes - [x] No <!-- If this introduces a breaking change: 1. Describe the impact and migration path for existing applications below. 2. Update the BREAKING.md file with the breaking change. 3. Add "BREAKING CHANGE: [...]" to the commit description when merging. See https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/blob/main/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md#footer for more information. --> ## Other information <!-- Any other information that is important to this PR such as screenshots of how the component looks before and after the change. --> How to test: 1. Navigate to the [input page](https://ionic-framework-lio43tje7-ionic1.vercel.app/src/components/input/test/bottom-content) on the `main` branch 2. Turn on the screen reader of your choice 3. Notice that the screen reader does not announce the helper or error text when the input is focused 4. Navigate to the [input page](https://ionic-framework-git-rou-11274-ionic1.vercel.app/src/components/input/test/bottom-content) on the `ROU-11274` branch 5. Turn on the screen reader of your choice 6. Verify that the screen reader announces the helper or error text when the input is focused on 7. Navigate to the [textarea page](https://ionic-framework-lio43tje7-ionic1.vercel.app/src/components/textarea/test/bottom-content) on the `main` branch 8. Repeat steps 2-3 9. Navigate to the [textarea page](https://ionic-framework-git-rou-11274-ionic1.vercel.app/src/components/textarea/test/bottom-content) on the `ROU-11274` branch 10. Repeat steps 5-6 Known Webkit issues: This fix will not work on macOS [16](https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=254081) and [17](https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=262895) as VoiceOver will not read any text using `aria-describedby`.
