VoiceOver: aria-valuetext breaks when interrupted by aria-live #180

From https://github.com/phetsims/ratio-and-proportion/issues/530. Specifically, see https://github.com/phetsims/ratio-and-proportion/issues/530#issuecomment-1360116065

Only in macOS 13. If VoiceOver is reading content from an aria-valuetext change and then gets interrupted by an aria-live=polite alert, VoiceOver will stop reading all aria-valuetext for that component until you navigate away from it and return.

It goes against W3 specification that aria-live=polite should interrupt aria-valuetext. But it is very buggy that VoiceOver should stop reading all aria-valuetext for the input element when this happens.

Report submitted. I submitted it as a Safari bug instead of an Accessibility bug, lets see if that helps us get a response.
