Attachment: Bug 2040677 - Add accessible name strings for clock edit panel rows r?#home-newtab-reviewers

Adds newtab-clock-widget-edit-item and
newtab-clock-widget-edit-item-with-nickname so VoiceOver can announce
each row in the clocks management panel by city (and optional nickname).
Consumed by the code change in the child patch.

I was trying to verify the fix on Firefox Nightly 153.0a1 (2026-06-01) on macOS 26.5.1 but it seems that I can still reproduce the initial issue in this fixed build as well. Here's a screencast with it. dgrant, any idea about it? Thanks!
