 In [changeset:"40816"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="40816"
 Widgets: Remove the title attributes used in the Tag cloud widget.

 - improves accessibility using an aria-label attribute to match the
 information conveyed visually with the one exposed to assistive
 technologies
 - adds an option in the widget to display the item counts, consistently
 with what other widgets already do (Archives, Categories)
