Comments toolbar: Non-descriptive link text for the "Text color" toolbar

      Issue Summary

      The link text for the "Text color" link is non-descriptive in the comments toolbar.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. In the Jira project, open any issue.
      2. In the Issue page main content area, navigate to the bottom section and select the "Comment" button.
      3. In the Comment section, keeping the screen reader on, navigate to the "Text color" link in the toolbar section.

      Actual Results

      The link text "Text color" in the toolbar section(that becomes available on activating the "Comment" button) in the main content area does not describe the destination page or the functionality it points to.
      As a result, screen reader users failed to understand the purpose of the link.

      Expected Results

      In the mentioned example, it is advisable to provide descriptive and unique text for presenting links. This will ensure that screen reader users can understand the purpose of the links when read out of context. For example, specify descriptive text "Red- Text color" via the "aria-label" property to make the information available only for screen reader users.
