Speech viewer no longer has a shortcut key in the tools menu in 2023.2 #15362

Description

@Qchristensen

Steps to reproduce:

With NVDA 2023.2 installed:

  • Press NVDA+n, then t to open the tools menu.
  • Arrow through the options and note the keys associated with each.
  • Press S (the key used to open this feature in 2023.1).

Actual behavior:

Speech viewer no longer has an associated key, and S now opens the add-on store ("A" opened the add-on manager in 2023.1).

Expected behavior:

There should be a shortcut key to toggle speech viewer.

It may be worth considering making "A" the key for add-on manager and leaving S for speech viewer (S still works in temporary copies so the shortcut hasn't been removed, it has just been overridden by the add-on store).
