Accessibility improvements: add labels to edit button #637

Description

Problem description
Container on individual pages can be edited in the ‘Page’ area. In the corresponding boxes for the container elements, there is an icon in the top right-hand corner that indicates the edit function. This icon has neither link text in the element nor a programmatically determinable label. The function of the icon is therefore not accessible to screen reader users.

Recommended action
The icon must be provided with a meaningful, programmatically determinable label. This can be done by means of visible link text, an aria-label attribute or an assignment via aria-labelledby. The purpose of the element (e.g. ‘Edit content’) must be clearly recognisable and readable by assistive technologies.
