Add aria-label to input item for accessibility

Problem/Motivation

Follow-up to #2833824: Add aria label to input item for accesibility - see patch at #4 for 7.x-2.x-dev.

Autocomplete Deluxe introduces 'empty link' 508 errors.
What It Means
A link contains no text.
Why It Matters
If a link contains no text, the function or purpose of the link will not be presented to the user. This can introduce confusion for keyboard and screen reader users.

Proposed resolution

We should add the aria label attributes for accessibility. Otherwise the validation for 508 compliance will fail.
