The icon block can be set to have a link, which is great! However, the link does not have discernible text for screen readers and no way to set this.

This needs a new field added for the "link label" that can either be inserted in using screen reader text or added via an aria-label.

This will enable screen reader users to know what the link is for. Otherwise it reads out the full URL, which isn't super helpful.
