. As the comment in qadevOOo/tests/java/mod/_toolkit/AccessibleListBox.java
says, it would try to run the hyperlink dialog and then
find various widgets using the a11y API. However, assumptions
that the test has do not match what widgets and corresponding
a11y implementations would be relevant for that dialog
today.
The test can be seen failing by enabling it locally
like this

and then running `make JunitTest_toolkit_unoapi_1`.
Just drop the test altogether.
If there should be a relevant test again in the future,
writing a new (C++, see [1]) one from scratch seems more
promising than having to deal with this outdated and disabled
test.
Dropping it also prepares for more upcoming vcl a11y changes
that would break even more assumptions that the test makes.
