Subject: [PATCH] Accessibility: Make Safari 10 + VoiceOver announce repeated,
 identical, `wp.a11y.speak()` messages.

Safari 10 + VoiceOver don't announce repeated, identical, strings sent to an
`aria-live` region. Appending a `no-break space` to a repeated message string,
forces them to think the strings are different.

Fixes #36853.
