Subject: [PATCH] Editor: Hide query loop pagination link arrows from assistive
 technology.

This changeset adss an `aria-hidden="true"` attribute to the optional arrows/chevron characters to the Query Loop and to the Comments Query Loop blocks pagination links.

These characters are text, so they're read out by assistive technologies. For better accessibility, it's best to reduce noise for screen reader users and prevent them to be rendered, using the `aria-hidden="true"` attribute.

Follow-up to [52057].

Props afercia, sabernhardt, kamig478, zieladam, audrasjb, joedolson, costdev.
Fixes #56067.
