 See related #24766 and all the following tickets about title attributes.

 In the terms List Table, used for Tags, Categories, and custom taxonomies,
 the main item link has a title attribute that contain the actual action
 ("Edit"). It should be replaced with an `aria-label` attribute.

 Please notice when a category is a sub-category, the "pad mdash" is
 displayed in the title attribute and shouldn't be there.

 Additionally, as already done in [33087], all the row action links would
 need to provide better context for assistive technologies. These links
 text should be expanded using `aria-label` attributes to reference the
 item title, so they make sense even when read out of context (this should
 be done for all the List Tables row action links).
