Jamulus 3.9 screen reader focus issue #2785

Description

@BlindRyan

Problem: when arrowing through the list of servers, it is no longer possible to press right arrow, and move over in the table to hear other aspects of that server, such as the delay time, location, etc.

In version 3.8 (accessible, when we arrow to a user name, and then ask Windows for the UIA object with focus, we obtain the object that contains the server name as the .name field.
Pressing right arrow, focus moves to the next UIA object, which contains the response time.

However, in 3.9, also position on a server name in the list, what we get when we ask for the UIA object with focus is actually the parent of that server name object, and seems to relate more to the list in general. Focus is not reported as being on that particular server.
Pressing right arrow, focus does not appear to move at all.

So, the root problem is that we are now getting the wrong object, and that object does not change as you arrow left and right.
