The sidebar toggle on Rustdoc pages is not recognised as a clickable item by accessibility tooling, making it difficult to toggle in circumstances where mouse usage is difficult.

This is an example of what it currently looks like in Vimium, a common extension for making pages keyboard-accessible:

Other than that, most Rustdoc features seem to be navigable just fine - thanks for that :)

Add ARIA role to sidebar toggle in Rustdoc

This indicates that the div is an interactive element, and makes the sidebar toggle "clickable" in assistive technologies.

Example of Vimium after this change has been applied (see the issue mentioned below for a screenshot of before):

Fixes rust-lang#82582
