AX: Facebook wrapped a file upload button in an unfocusable ARIA button, which doesn't work with AXPress.

It's dumb that Facebook does this, but we should probably still work around it in WebKit. If a File upload button is included in a custom ARIA button, either have WebKit ignore the ARIA button (just expose the native field to the AX API), or have WebKit expose the contents of the button (usually buttons children are presentational), or have AXPress on the ARIA button traverse down the DOM tree to the native element. I don't have a preference for one solution or the other.
