Announce the outcome of a Delete in both remembered lists through the screen reader

Browse Source 
Deleting a remembered app (or peer) was SILENT to NVDA: the next row lands on the same
list index the deleted one had and the list already has focus, so no focus/selection
event fires - nothing to announce (Ed, 2026-07-26: deleting foobar said nothing).

FocusAndAnnounceAfterDelete now follows the focus move with a Tolk line through the
existing ScreenReader channel (the house pattern for feedback the screen reader can't
observe): '<deleted row> removed. <row now under focus>.' - or that the list is empty.
No dialog, no popup; applied to the remembered applications AND remembered peers lists
so the two stay identical.

Gate 60/60.
