Browse mode for PDF in Microsoft Edge

[michaelDCurran]

Microsoft Edge now exposes accessible text for pdf documents. Currently looks like plain text with links. The window and UIA class etc are slightly different than for web pages.

This doesn't work reliably in master-13477,dc3ad4ce.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open any PDF file in Microsoft Edge and use the arrow keys to read it.

Expected behavior:

The text must be read.

Actual behavior:

Pressing right arrow pronounces "Space" and pressing left arrow pronounces "blank". The way to fix this is to use object-navigation to enter the "PDF File Document" object, route the mouse to the very first element and left-click on it.

What is your exact Windows version?
