Message:

Accessibility: Change the posts "Quick Edit" link to a button.

For better accessibility and semantics, user interface controls that perform an
action should be buttons. Links should exclusively be used for navigation. Also,
adds an aria-expanded attribute to the button to communicate to assistive
technologies the expanded / collapsed status of the Quick Edit form.

Props Cheffheid, audrasjb, afercia.
Fixes #38677.
