Drop the com.sun.star.accessibility.GetStandardAccessibleFactoryService
UNO service that was used to create instances of
the a11y classes for (mainly vcl) widgets.
The service was needed to break a dependency cycle.
However, with

a11y: Merge accessibility module into vcl
and all the preparatory commits in place, there
is no more dependency cycle, as the a11y classes
for vcl widgets no longer depend on any modules
"above" vcl.
Therefore, drop the UNO service and the abstract
vcl::IAccessibleFactory class and other related
classes.
Make all methods in the AccessibleFactory class
(that was previously subclassing the abstract
IAccessibleFactory) static helper methods,
and call them directly.
The UNO service dropped in this commit was
introduced in
commit 1af510e951

Create an UNO service to do the symbol lookup in toolkit::AccessibilityClient
and its documentation was already clearly stating
that it's only meant for LibreOffice internal use:
> /**
> The toolkit module uses this to get a pointer to the AccessibleFactory from the acc module.
> Because we have a dependency in our modules that goes the "wrong" way.
>
> @since LibreOffice 24.8
>
> @internal
>
> ATTENTION: This is marked <em>internal</em> and does not
> have the <em>published</em> flag, which means it is subject to
> change without notice and should not be used outside the LibreOffice core.

LibreOffice API IDL Files Except UDK API
Contains all of the IDL files except those in udkapi.
i.e. the interfaces that are specific to the LibreOffice application. An artificial (?) separation.
The reference offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and
udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl (formerly combined into a single
offapi/type_reference/types.rdb) are used to detect inadvertent incompatible
changes. They are plain-text .idl files (not strictly lexicographically sorted,
though, so they satisfy the .idl file requirements for no forward dependencies),
so in cases where we deliberately /do/ become incompatible they can be modified
manually.
Old such cases of deliberately becoming incompatible are listed in
offapi/type_reference/typelibrary_history.txt, newer such cases are recorded in
the git logs of (now superseded) offapi/type_reference/types.rdb,
offapi/type_reference/offapi.rdb, and udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.rdb, new such
cases are recorded in the git logs of offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and
udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl.
