a11y: dashboard and navigation semantics (navbar, cards, sync, switchers) (#3468)

* Label new-UI dashboard navigation and sync status for screen readers

Each bottom-nav tab becomes one button node carrying its localized name, its
selected state and mutual exclusion; the pill text no longer duplicates the
selected tab. The assets/history tabs gain selected state, the Bitcoin/Lightning
switcher becomes a labeled toggle, and the sync bar becomes a single button whose
label is the localized status (plus Tor/MWEB/Silent Payments badges) with a hint
pointing at node management. Compact mode's pulsing dot and the chain icon's
progress ring now have text equivalents, and the invisible pointer-absorbing
strip behind the nav bar is excluded from traversal.

* Make new-UI dashboard cards, lists and menus operable by screen readers

Collapse the wallet-name row into one labeled button (hardware-wallet glyph
folded into the label, inner accounts button no longer a second stop) and give
balance cards a labeled, selectable node with a long-press action for show/hide
balance. Balances hidden behind AnimatedOpacity, card artwork and decorative
glyphs leave the semantics tree; the 3-dots customize target and the card action
buttons are now named buttons. Assets/history rows, the history header, the MWEB
promo, long-press menu items, the account cards and the add-account and
generate-name controls become single button nodes, the phantom action chip in the
assets header is built conditionally instead of drawn at opacity 0, and app cards
get a close tooltip plus an 'opens externally' hint.

* Use expression bodies for the new a11y helpers

* Restore untouched expressions in cards_view

* Address review: state-aware balance hint, tooltip-free close label

* Address review: keep header height without the chip, name the selected index

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit improves accessibility for screen-reader users in the Cake Wallet app's new dashboard. It adds labels and roles to navigation tabs, balance cards, buttons, and status indicators so assistive technology can describe them properly. There is no security-relevant change here.

Recommended action

No security action needed. Treat as a normal accessibility improvement. If desired, verify the new strings are translated consistently across locales.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
