Editable fields in the tables are missing a label for users using
assisting technologies like screen readers.

Example: the dropdown in the `Type` column and date selection field in the
`Release Date` column.
https://django-admin-
tests.netlify.app/django_admin_tests/latest/english/admin/demo/release/

The columns have a title on top, but this is not associated with the
individual field elements.

Axe has flagged this as an accessibility issue related to the `select-
name` rule:
https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.10/select-name

This seems to be a failure of `WCAG SC 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value`:

Comment:

Thank you, I believe this hasn’t been reported before. Not sure what the
fix looks like with Django’s admin implementation but in HTML that’s most
likely an extra `aria-labelledby` or `aria-label` for those elements.
