patches: fix VoiceOver reads only first word in org-agenda

When AXSelectedTextChanged is posted from the parent EmacsView (NSView)
with UIElementsKey pointing to the EmacsAXBuffer element, VoiceOver calls
accessibilityLineForIndex: on the VIEW rather than on the focused element.
In specialised buffers (org-agenda, org-super-agenda) where line geometry
differs from plain text, the view returns an incorrect range and VoiceOver
reads only the first word at the cursor (e.g. 'La' or 'Liga') instead of
the full line.

Plain text buffers were unaffected because the fallback geometry happened
to be correct for simple line layouts.

Fix: post AXSelectedTextChanged on self (the EmacsAXBuffer element)
instead of on self.emacsView.  This causes VoiceOver to call
accessibilityLineForIndex: on the element that owns the selection, which
returns the correct line range in all buffer types.  Remove UIElementsKey
(unnecessary when posting from the element itself).

This aligns with the pre-review code (51f5944) which always posted
AX notifications directly on the focused element.
