💡 What: Added `group-focus-visible` classes to icons inside links that already had `group-hover` classes. Also updated the `ExternalLinkIcon` to use `role="img"` and `aria-label`. 🎯 Why: Keyboard users were missing out on the visual feedback (arrow movement) that mouse users received when hovering over links. Screen reader users were reading the external link icon as hidden instead of understanding it opens in a new tab. ♿ Accessibility: Ensures WCAG 2.1 SC 2.4.7 Focus Visible and proper ARIA labeling for icons.
