NVDA ignores aria-label on <input> and <label> elements when in reading mode

[JamesCatt]

This may be the same issue as #7029 but not sure.

Steps to reproduce:

Apply an aria-label to either an input or a label like so (behavior is same for both):

<label for="myInput" aria-label="Something">Name</label>
<input id="myInput" type="text">

or

<label for="myInput">Name</label>
<input id="myInput" type="text" aria-label="Something">

Actual behavior:

When in reading mode, NVDA announces the following (copy/pasted from speech viewer when used with Firefox, blank lines preserved):

Name

edit has auto complete

Note: When focusing the input in forms mode, the aria-label is applied correctly:

Something edit has auto complete
blank

In IE 11, the details of the edit field are announced differently, but the aria-label is ignored in the same fashion.

Expected behavior:

field is announced with aria-label applied, regardless of reading mode (visible label could be read in addition to aria-label, but aria-label should not be excluded).
