#27644: Audio/Video playlists not keyboard accessible.

---------------------------+-----------------------------
The media elements default implementation already has keyboard
accessibility issues, because there's no way to bring the controls into
focus for keyboards. The playlist can be made accessible simply by
changing the wp-playlist-item-title wrapper from a <span> to an <a
href="#"> or a <button>, so they automatically carry keyboard
accessibility.
This still doesn't allow a keyboard-dependent user any way to stop or
pause the video, but they can at least play videos in the playlist.
Note, as well, that since the Add Media Panel is not accessible (see
#25100, #25101, #25102, #25103, #25105), it will continue to be impossible
for a keyboard-dependent user to insert videos or subtitles.
