applets/brightness: improve screen reader a11y

When using BrightnessItem with orca, it will read out both the
percentage label and the actual slider value (which is in hardware-
specific units and not very friendly). Also, changing the value will
not cause it to be read out, as we are relying on the automatic readout
of child objects, and that does not consistently happen when the value
is changed.

Instead, mark some things as Accessible.ignored (to avoid duplication)
and set the brightnes value in percent (or as qualitative labels for
on/off and low/mid/high) as the Accessible.description, which is read
out when it is changed through arrow keys from the delegate.
