Prevent the down arrow from decreasing the slider value as the up arrow cannot increase it.

The slider field ranges are currently communicated visually by users interacting with the slider element. This PR adds an aria-label to the input which communicates the range to screen reader users.
This PR also prevents the down arrow from decreasing the slider value when focused as the up arrow cannot increase it (the up arrow moves focus back to the text input).
