Replace infinitely autoloading behavior on scroll with a user-controlled load more button. Fix a long standing accessibility issue in the media library. Infinite scroll poses a wide range of problems for accessibility, usability, and performance.
This change modifies the library to load 40 items in the initial view, with a load more button to load the next 40 items and a button to move focus from the load more region to the first of the most recently added items.
The text for communicating the jump target was broadly discussed, agreeing that the text incorporated here would most concisely and clearly convey the purpose of the button, and any further detail is learnable from use.

This is part of a larger project in cleaning up core's admin CSS. This collapses all colors used in the CSS to one of 12 blues, greens, reds, and yellows, 13 grays, pure black, and pure white. The colors are perceptually uniform from light to dark, half of each range has a 4.5 or higher contrast against white, the other half has a 4.5 or higher contrast against black.
Standardizing on this set of colors will help contributors make consistent, accessible design decisions. The full color palette can be seen here: https://codepen.io/ryelle/full/WNGVEjw

- improves focus management by moving focus to the notices, if any, or to the first "tabbable" element
- this avoids a focus loss and helps Braille-only and screen magnification users to be aware of the messages
- adds an ARIA role `alert` to all the notices
- uses `wp.a11y.speak()` to announce messages to assistive technology
- this way, all visual users will see the messages while assistive technology users will get an audible message
- uses `wp.i18n` for translatable strings in `wp-admin/js/image-edit.js`

Implementation of bottom padding in overflow content differs across browsers. See https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/129. To make bottom spacing consistent across browsers there's the need for an alternate CSS method.
- uses a CSS `after` pseudo element or simply a bottom margin to reserve some bottom spacing
- removes a couple leftovers from [40428]
- fixes an annoying visual glitch where the media modal content is visible behind the bottom toolbar border

Visible `<label>` elements benefit all users. The `placeholder` attribute should not be used as a replacement for visible labels.
Instead, it's supposed to be used only for a short hint to aid users with data entry e.g. a sample value or a brief description of the expected format.
Screen readers may not announce a `placeholder` attribute at all. Other users may suffer from the lack of a visible label and a placeholder used as replacement, for example:
- users with cognitive disabilities may have trouble remembering what the filled field does
- speech recognition users cannot see the name they can speak to set focus on the field
- low-vision users with high text-size may not be able to see the whole placeholder even when it's visible, if its value is clipped by the edge of the input

For a number of years, the Media modal missed an explicit ARIA role and the required attributes for modal dialogs.
This was confusing for assistive technology users, since they may not realize they're inside a dialog, and that consequently the keyboard interactions may be different from the rest of the page. Lack of an explicit label for the dialog was confusing as well, since assistive technology users didn't have an immediate sense of what the dialog is for.
This change makes the Media modal meet the ARIA Authoring Practices recommendations, helping users better understand the purpose and interactions with the modal. Also, it makes sure to hide the rest of the page content from assistive technologies, until support for `aria-modal="true"` improves.
Additionally:
- moves the modal H1 heading to the beginning of the modal content
- changes the modal left menu position to make visual and DOM order match
- improves the `wp.media.view.FocusManager` documentation

- swaps the columns source order in the image details template, to make visual and DOM order match

- hides the IE 11 "X" `::-ms-clear` button in the Insert from URL field, as it conflicts with the uploading spinner

- slightly increases vertical spacing between form fields in the media sidebar

Many users found the attachment URL field confusing: it says "URL" so it may appear like a field meant to paste a URL into.
Also, the Alt text field is the most important one in terms of content, while the Title field needs to be de-emphasized.

- moves the alt text field to the top as first field
- avoids to set initial focus on the alt text field
- adds an explanatory text with a link pointing to the W3C "alt decision tree" tutorial

In many a strange and curious file of forgotten lore—
While I pondered, blaming Nacin, my notifications suddenly awakened,
As of someone quietly DMing;—DMing me, I can’t ignore.
“’Tis some contributor,” I muttered, “DMing me an idea or four—
Only this and nothing more.”
Ah, distinctly I remember, at WordCamp US, last December;
A mad proposal nearly laid me—down out cold—upon the floor.
Curious, I listened closely;—to a plan I agreed with, mostly—
A way to make our JavaScript—JavaScript which was a chore—
Maintainable, extendable, for the future, is what I saw.
Guten-ready for evermore.
Open here I switch to Slack, when, with many a patch and hack,
In there stepped Omar, a JavaScript developer hardcore;
Pronouncing all the changes fit; ready now to be commit;
“There’s nothing else for us to do,” DMing me, “It’s done!” he swore—
“No longer random guessing at which file need next be explored—
Let’s move on, we’re all aboard.”
Moved all together, grouped and managed, in folders all is packaged,
The code had all been cleaned and tidied, important parts moved to the fore,
“Though this change be useful here,” I said, “it is too large, I fear,
We couldn’t manage such a patch, we’ve done nothing like this before—
Tell me where doth go this change, change to make our codebase soar!”
Quoth Omar, “In WordPress Core.”

WordPress no longer supports many old old browsers: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/04/23/target-browser-coverage/
This also removes alot of no longer necessary CSS. It served us well, but we are never getting back together with IE8,9,10.
So, in the (paraphrased) words of Taylor Swift:
I remember when we dropped support the first time
Saying, "This is it, I've had enough, " 'cause like
We hadn't seen many users in a month
When you said you needed flexbox. (What?)
Then you postMessage again and say
"IE8, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change, trust me."
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say, "I hate the box model, " we break up, you call me, "I love css-grids."
Ooh, we called it off again last night
But ooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you
We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
You go talk to EDGE, talk to my FIREFOX, talk to CHROME

For better accessibility, expandable panels should be placed immediately after
the control that expands them. This change moves the Media Library inline
uploader up, right after the "Add New" button, also introducing consistency with
the Plugin and Theme uploaders.
Adds a proper ARIA role on the button and an `aria-expanded` attribute to give
better feedback to assistive technologies users about the uploader's expanded state.
Improves the focus handling when closing the uploader, improves the focus style
and color contrast ratio of the uploader "close" button.
