Accessibility: Screen Reader Fails to Announce Notification Status "4.1.3 Status Messages" Violation

[anitakumari28]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

• VS Code Version: 1.100.0
• OS Version: macOS Sequoia 15.4.1
• VoiceOver: Built-in macOS Screen reader

Steps to Reproduce:

1. On macOS, press Command + F5 to activate the built-in VoiceOver screen reader (or activate any screen reader of choice).
2. Click on the notification icon in VS Code to read the latest notification message.

When a notification is opened, the screen reader reads the message content directly without first announcing the type or status of the notification (e.g., "Info", "Warning", or "Error").

According to Requirement No. 4.1.3 Status Messages, screen readers should first announce the type/status of a notification before its content. This allows users to understand the context or severity of the message prior to hearing the details.

This issue affects the overall accessibility of both Visual Studio Code and the WCA4Z VSCode extension, making them less usable for users with visual impairments.
