[SF] [A11y] [ui5-avatar] Avatar is announced as "clickable graphic" even when not interactive

Bug Description

Expected Behavior

When the ui5-avatar is not interactive (focusable/clickable), it shouldn't be announced as "clickable". Only the accessible name should be announced by screen readers.

Hello @SAP/ui5-webcomponents-topic-p,

The issue is reproducible on all available ui5-webcomponents versions via the provided steps and NVDA screen reader.
Also the issue isn't reproducible by using jaws 2019, jaws 2021 or Windows Narrator as they announce:
"My Avatar graphic".

Not sure, which screen readers are fully supported.

Best Regards,
Boyan Rakilovski
