[A11Y] File lists are currently inaccessible ASCII art representations #2167

@crutchcorn

Description

@crutchcorn

Currently, when we're representing a file tree of some kind, we display something like the following:

An ASCII representation of a file tree, based on the output of the tree command

This doesn't read out well with accessible technologies such as screen-readers. Instead, we might want to consider building out an interactive component that supports assistive technologies better, as well as collapseable states.

An example of what a component might look like could be found in Ant Design or Fluent UI
