Make SUI breadcrumb readable by screen readers #14180

The breadcrumbs in the SUI were not readable by screen readers because they are represented as a button with a text block inside of it. Turns out, if you make the DataTemplate's item IStringable (meaning it has a ToString()), it all magically works! Allowing the screen reader to read the button as text.

Closes #13826
