Add an accessible sender name to each unlabeled turn.

ChatRow wraps ChatRowContent in an unlabeled div, and ChatView renders ChatRow directly for each message. The text and user_feedback branches also use unlabeled div roots. After removing the visible headers, screen-reader users cannot identify the sender. Add a localized accessible name based on message.type without restoring the visible headers.

Reserve space for the preview button.

When complex markdown starts with a long heading or line, its text can extend beneath this absolutely positioned, z-10 button. The content has no right-side clearance for the button. Add clearance to the markdown content when the button is present.

aria-label on the message bubble hides the user's message text from screen readers.

The bubble has role="button". An aria-label on a button replaces its text content as the accessible name. Screen readers therefore announce "click to edit" and not the message. The linked issue asks for screen-reader accessibility after the role labels are removed, so this is a regression for those users.

Remove aria-label. The Mention text then becomes the accessible name. The title on Line 1276 still gives the edit hint to pointer users. If you want a spoken hint, use aria-description, or aria-describedby that points to a visually hidden element.
