RNA is implemented as chord symbol internally which partially works but largely doesn't when it comes to the screenreader info. We need to add some translations, eg for the Roman numeral themselves (including capital versus lower case!), also for things like "diminished" which won't have already been parsed.

_fix #296362: screenreader support for RNA

Resolves: https://musescore.org/en/node/296362

RNA and Nashville notations are implemented as chord smbols,
because much of the code is common between these,
but it doesn't work to use the regular chord symbol screenreader code.
For Nashville numbers, we need to get the root from the function rather than the rootTpc.
For RNA, we need to perform some rudimentary parsing to turn the Roman numerals into numbers
and substitute the accidentals._
