[a11y] No patch info, with/without patch and startup crash inaccessible to users who can't see colour #14

Crash-Stop uses colour alone to indicate No Patch Info, Without Patch, With Patch and Startup Crash. This makes this information inaccessible to screen reader users, as well as to users with some kinds of colour vision deficiency (AKA colour blindness).

Two possible solutions:

  1. Use an icon as well as colour. Give the icon a label for screen reader users, or better still, a tooltip (e.g. title attribute) so any user can see it if they wish.
  2. The version links already have a tooltip for the full build id. Prefix this tooltip with the status. For example, "With Patch, 20191029093803".

Fixed inn https://github.com/mozilla/crash-stop-addon/commit/32be925dc84f9d762ee710b43a18ade5ff9227c4. I added "With/Without Patch" in the tooltips for version link (2nd solution you proposed). When no patch info then no prefix in the tooltips. Thx for reporting.
