Currently, there is no way to navigate to Coda signs etc. My recent PR https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/5270 adds screenreader support for these and other symbols, but since these are added to the score as measure elements, the current next/previous-element commands skip them. Adding that support should be similar to what I did to add support for frames in https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/5270/commits/5bf46eae2f28a2…, but we'd need more code to traverse multiple elements on a measure.

Relates to #277496: [EPIC] Accessibility issues/suggestions

_fix #294126: cannot navigate to measure elements

The navigation code for next-element and previous-elements ignores measure elements
(elements in the el() list for the measure).
This change adds handling for this
by checking for measure elements before moving to the next or previous measure
in Segment::nextElement() and Segment::previousElement(),
There is corresponding code in Measure::nextElementStaff()
and in Measure::previousElementStaff()
to iterate through multiple elements if present._
