Comment:

 In [changeset:"47834" 47834]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="47834"
 Accessibility: Media: Hide the invisible "file input" on media views from
 assistive technologies.

 The file input button is visually hidden, but was announced by screen
 readers in workflows unrelated to file uploads.
 It is now hidden from assistive technologies by the means of an `aria-
 hidden` attribute, as its CSS display property must not be changed to make
 sure it still works on old browsers.

 See #49753.
 Fixes #47611.
