#1473: Accessibility issues with WordPress.tv search form

 The WordPress.tv search form has two accessibility issues:

 1) There's no visible focus, so when a user arrives at the form using a
 keyboard they can't tell. Add some kind of visible change for users
 arriving using a keyboard.

 2) There's no label or submit button. A missing label makes it harder for
 screen-reader users to identify the purpose of the form, in particular.
 Add a label and a submit button to the form using the `.screen-reader-
 text` class and appropriate styles. Ideally, the submit button would also
 become visible on focus, but this would be more of an enhancement.
