[Accessibility]: Filter controls are exposed as separate landmark regions, causing landmark overload #5497

Description

Describe the bug

In the page accessibility structure, individual filters such as Author, Subject, Date, Has files, Item Type, and Access type are each exposed as separate region landmarks. This creates excessive landmarks and makes landmark navigation noisy and less meaningful for assistive technology users.

Expected behavior

The filter area should be grouped under a single labeled region such as Filters or Search filters, while individual filter controls should use appropriate headings, labels, or fieldsets instead of separate region landmarks.
