VoiceOver labels on Lock Screen Quick Actions shortcut buttons all include the word “Off”

Minor

Description

By defaul, there are two shortcut action buttons on the lock screen, Torch and Camera.
VoiceOver now speaks these as "Torch, off, button", and "Camera, off, Button".
Even if you change their function, as permitted from iOS 18, the "Off" part of the label remains.
Whatever the use of the button chosen, the "Off" part of the label is superfluous.

Steps to reproduce

Enable VoiceOver.
Go to the lock screen.
Find the Torch and Camera action shortcut buttons in the bottom left and bottom right of the screen.
You will hear the superfluous "Off" label attached.
This remains whatever you assign these buttons to.
