Description of changes
To comply with the standards set by screen readers for a spin button, an input must have 2 controls, which in the case of the spin button, is the up and down buttons. We have to remove the aria-hidden on these 2 buttons so screen readers can detect them.
Alongside of that, we should also be able to add an accessible name to the up/down buttons in the spinner.
Focus areas to test
Spin Button page in the component, specifically to see that the aria-hidden value is gone.
