Vote-2127: Removed USWDS External Link Notification

[clmedders]

Jira ticket

Vote-2127

Description

Removing the default voice over notification coming from USWDS to let the user know they are on an external link. Since we have added custom strings that will be translated this will no longer be needed.

Deployment and testing

Post-deploy steps

1. cd into the votegov theme and run a npm run dev and wait for build to complete

QA/Testing instructions

1. Visit home page and turn on voiceover (for mac can use command+f5) and use the tab button to navigate to an external link
2. The expected behavior is you should not hear "external link" at the start of the command but only the custom message we have applied.
3. To verify that this is targeting the right setting visit web/themes/custom/votegov/src/sass/_uswds-settings.scss and update the setting by adding This is a test after a rebuild you should now hear this at the start of the link.
