Follow-up for #7887.

We have several links in app that are announced as a button would be.
This prevents screen readers users to have a complete and correct info regarding the element type and available action for element.

Proposed solution:
Announce action as "Follow link" ("Double tap to follow link") and Textview type as "Link".
Edit : Should be announced as "link", without double tap and long press action.
