Link to issue number:

None

Summary of the issue:

The order of selection messages for preselected and just selected text needs to be different. When a control with preselected text gains focus, we must inform them it is selected first so they do not unintentionally modify the text. When a user intentionally selects text, the 'selected' part of the message is still important (for users who may not be familiar with a command), but the text selected is more important.

Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:

This commit differentiates and documents the differences here with helper methods to make these announcements.

Testing performed:

Selected text, confirmed that the message was "text selected"
Used run dialog to land on preselected text, confirmed the message was "selected text"

@lukaszgo1 You may be interested in reviewing this PR, it further modifies work you did previously to provide different message for preselected text and text just selected by the user.
