Patch to make CTabFolder return accessible name

Eclipse 3.8/4.2 M7

When Accessibility tools like screen readers ask a CTabFolder for its name, it currently does not answer anything. (If the AT asks for the name of a CTabItem, then CTabFolder correctly answers the specified CTabItem's text).
CTabFolder should be answering the *selected* CTabItem's text when AT ask it for its own name. (i.e. when childID == ACC.CHILDID_SELF)

Fix needs to be backported to 4.2.2+. Reopening as a reminder to do this.

I've added Accessibility keyword so this defect will show up in queries
