Summary

During our recent accessibility audit, we discovered that the calcite-action button is read out as a "toggle button" when using a screen reader. @driskull mentioned in a meeting that "adding type to action makes sense, like 'toggle', 'button', 'expand-toggle'." We request the ability to control the "type" as suggested by Matt for calcite-action components.

Actual Behavior

Screen readers read calcite-action components as "toggle-button".

Expected Behavior

Default behavior for a calcite-action should be read by a screen reader as "button"

Should also be paired with the action-group selectionMode effort in #7052.
