Fixes #2487 and #2488

Issue #2487 - remove/tweak the aria-labels in footer links
Issue #2488 - change between visibility:hidden/visibility:visible for the search form, which also makes the form non-focusable and hidden from assistive technologies when it's not active

sorry about the merge conflict here, I merged in the wrong order. fixing...

Fixes the issue of the text input/clear control still being keyboard focusable when not active/visible.
Having "go to..." announced as part of a link is completely unnecessary, verbose, redundant for AT users. They know that a link "goes to" something.
For the `target=_blank` links, best to front-load what they link to.

Hey @patrickhlauke,
Something went wrong with the build.

TravisCI finished with status errored, which means the build failed because something unrelated to the tests, like a problem a dependency or the build process itself.
