AX: <label>s that are targets of aria-labelledby lose their labelfor
relationship when they change
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=298891
rdar://158906980
Reviewed by Tyler Wilcock.
When <label> elements change, the handleLabelChanged method of AXObjectCache
get's called to update
its labelfor relationships. In this code path, we clear all LabelFor
relationships and re-add them
based on the label's `for` attribute. This is fine when a control's label just
uses the `for` attribute,
but if the control itself uses aria-labelledby to point to the label element,
we end up clearing this
relationship. This causes us a control's label to be stale, for example,
because a text change on a label
won't know what other elements to update.
Fix this by preventing clearing LabelFor relationships when the control uses
aria-label or aria-labelledby.
