Support for adding ARIA label to Numeral Date Field without displaying visible labels.

[siddhant-sage24]

Description

As a developer using Carbon, I want the Numeral Date Field component to support ARIA labels (such as aria-label or ariaLabe) without requiring a visible label, so that the component remains accessible for screen readers.

Suggested solution

Please can you add support for an aria-label/ariaLabel or similar prop in the Numeral Date Field component, allowing it to provide descriptive labels for screen readers without rendering visible labels.

@ljemmo @harpalsingh can you please have a look at this and give your opinion on whether this should be an allowed state? It would result in the Numeral Date Input not having a visible label. This has only recently been brought in line with the DS.

I can think of some edge cases where this might be needed but its not actively something we would encourage for accessibility reasons. @siddhant-sage24 - do you have an example of the design you can share with us for more context. Feel free to DM me on slack.
