Research direction
Locate the devtools toggle and panel components, then inspect their current accessibility tree. Implement the requested aria-label, aria-controls, aria-haspopup, aria-expanded, aside element, and descriptive panel name; improve other panel buttons where practical. Done means the devtools exposes these relationships and names clearly in an accessibility tree inspection.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Would be great if the devtools was more accessible. See for example the sad accessibility tree when I select the collapse button:

The toggle button, should have an aria-label and be linked to the panel via aria-controls, aria-haspopup and aria-expanded.
The panel itself should be an <aside> and also have a descriptive name via aria-label.
The buttons inside the panel and such could probably be improved too, but at least the above should make the devtools itself more "visible" in the accessibility tree.
