Input gesture name for NVDA+b command is not obvious #10301

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

A user asked what the command was called that was invoked with NVDA+b as they could not find it in the Input Gestures dialog.

In the User guide, it is listed as:
Name: Read active window
Description: reads all the controls in the currently active window (useful for dialogs)

In the Input Gestures dialog, it is "Speaks the current foreground object".

Describe the solution you'd like

Change the description in the Input Gestures dialog to something like "Reads active window" or "Reads all controls in the active window".

Aside from anything else, the current name is not actually correct as it does read the whole active window and not the active object (open WINVER, leave the focus on the OK button and press NVDA+B - it reads the dialog even though the active object, is that OK button).
