Describe the bug
When you change month, it is expected that the new month with year will be announced by screen reader.
Currently after clicking next/prev month button, user doesn’t know that month has changed and what month is currently selected, because nothing is announced. It is recommended to add aria-live="polite" and announce changed information to user.

To Reproduce

  1. Start the screen reader and open the date-picker with keyboard.
  2. Navigate to previous or next month button, then click it

Expected behavior
Selected month with year will be announced by screen reader.
