Str:

1. Open a presentation with at least two slides.
2. Switch to the Thumbnails pane.
3. Press delete to delete a slide.
4. Press NVDA+tab, up arrow, down arrow, etc.
   Expected: The new current slide should be reported.
   Actual: Exception:

ERROR - scriptHandler.executeScript (20:17:36):

In [04b75bb]:

Correctly detect next selected slide when deleting a slide in PowerPoint's thumbnails view. Fixes #3415.

Specifically:
- bind documentwindow's selectionChange script to delete and backspace.
- Slide NVDAObject's name property: catch COMError when fetching slideNumber (this was already done for title)

Changes:
State: closed
