Subject: [PATCH] Accessibility: Themes: use `aria-current` for the
 `Walker_Page` current link.

See [42808] for `Walker_Nav_Menu`.

The `aria-current` attribute is a simple, effective way to help assistive
technologies users orientate themselves within a list of items. Continues the
introduction in core of `aria-current` after [42440], [41683], [41359], and [41371].

Props chetan200891, wpzinc.
Fixes #43522.
