[TTY]: VAMC - Locations should have TTY: 711 links for deaf/hard-of-hearing users #23578

User Story or Problem Statement

As a user who might want to make a Text Telephone (TTY) call, I would like to have that link available on the VAMC Location pages. If I don't have TTY set up on my smart phone, I would have to exit the VAMC location page to call 7-1-1.

Details

I've been working with Meli on the VA Mobile team to standardize TTY language and affordances. While doing some research into another application, I took a look at our VAMC pages. There's an opportunity to improve our views by adding TTY links, using our Telephone component for deaf/hard-of-hearing users. Screenshots attached below.

Addition from Michelle: We should also ensure that TTY numbers which are displayed inside service accordions or on other VAMC pages are treated accordingly (this might require a separate issue)

I also noticed that the existing phone numbers are not using the <va-telephone> component. Can we include that in this issue or should I make a separate task to update those?
