Revert "fix(material/slider): some screen readers announcing long dec…

…imal values (angular#20760)"

This reverts commit 19f5f5c.

Reverting this for two reasons:
* the truthiness check is a bit too broad, preventing someone
  from setting the empty string or zero
* I'd prefer to have the input named `valuetext` rather than `aria-valuetext`
  since it's potentially confusing without supporting the `attr.`
  (I know we do this elsewhere, but I'd like to avoid more use of
  this pattern)
