Smarter tabs, and improved accessibility — Vivaldi Browser snapshot 3882.3

In today’s snapshot, we’ve fixed a range of issues, including a crash with the ad blocker, inconsistent mail sorting, and conflicts with tab media controls. Accessibility also improves with caret browsing support, while the address bar height has been reduced for auto-hide.
