The input renders role="switch" but never set aria-checked, which the WAI-ARIA switch pattern requires to reflect toggle state to assistive technology. Mirrors the aria-valuenow fix already shipped for the Loader's role="progressbar" in the same accessibility effort (dhis2#1447).

Implements LIBS-572, part of the library-wide accessibility effort tracked in #1447.
Description
Switchrendersrole="switch"on its input but never setsaria-checked, which the WAI-ARIA switch pattern requires to communicate toggle state to assistive technology. This mirrors thearia-valuenowfix already shipped forLoader'srole="progressbar"in the same effort (#1449).No prop changes —
aria-checkedis derived from the existingcheckedprop, the same patternLoaderused foraria-valuenow/amount.Was this change primarily generated using an AI tool? Yes — Claude Code, Claude Sonnet 5. 🤖 Used to identify the gap (cross-referencing the WAI-ARIA switch pattern and the merged Loader accessibility PR for precedent), and to draft/verify the fix and test below; I reviewed and understand the change.
