Patrick H. Lauke 3a79335a0b Docs: rename "Screen readers" helper page to "Visually hidden"
"screen readers" is quite reductive, as there are other assistive technologies. content hidden this way is even announced by things like Alexa/Siri etc, so it's not so much just "screen readers".
in the long run, we may even consider changing the actual classnames (maybe `.visually-hidden` / `.visually-hidden-focusable`, though admittedly that's a bit verbose).

also includes a tiny tweak to layout.md to generalise the note about using `.sr-only`

Visually hide an element while still allowing it to be exposed to assistive technologies (such as screen readers) with `.sr-only`. Use `.sr-only-focusable` to visually hide an element by default, but to display it when it's focused (e.g. by a keyboard-only user). Can also be used as mixins.
{{< example >}}
<h2 class="sr-only">Title for screen readers</h2>
<a class="sr-only-focusable" href="#content">Skip to main content</a>
{{< /example >}}
{{< highlight scss >}}
// Usage as a mixin
.sr-only-title {
@include sr-only;
}
.skip-navigation {
@include sr-only-focusable;
}
{{< /highlight >}}
