DataList - aria labeling and aria-selected should be removed from li elements

[thatblindgeye]

Describe the enhancement or change

• Per naming role guidance from W3C, listitems should not have aria labeling even if technically it may work. We should remove any aria-label, aria-labelledby, and/or aria-describedby from any li items in this component.
• The aria-selected attribute must be removed from the DataListItem component, as the attribute is not valid on li elements

Is this request originating from a Red Hat product team? If so, which ones and is there any sort of deadline for this enhancement?

Any other information?

Hi @thatblindgeye I would like to work on this. I have already set up the project locally. Is this the file you are talking about?

Do you have any other information that could help with this?
Also should I questions regarding the issue here or in slack?
Thank You.

@Mash707 yep that's the file! The updates should really just be removing some things from the li element within that file; we'd just want to make sure we're not removing anything being used for anything other than these attributes (e.g. aria-labelledby may be used beyond just being passed to the li). And either is fine! Whichever you'd prefer to ask any questions
