Search buttons do not have an accessible name

Currently the Nicepage search button (by default the magnifying glass icon) doesn't have an accessible name.

instead the html simply gives it the following: button class="u-search-button" type="submit"

When a button doesn't have an accessible name, screen readers announce it as 'button', making it unusable for users who rely on screen readers.

To be compliant, Nicepage needs to follow the correct markup as outlined here:

Hi Olivia.
It's not just the search button that's missing a name. It's also the menu hamburger and carousel left and right arrows

Hallo,....ich habe das gleiche Problem. Man kann diese button keinen titel eingeben. Google bewertet das schlecht. Bitte ändern und Funktion hinzufügen. ;-) Danke
