The code before was not wrong, just deeply nested. The worst case was
that the final $upArrowLink.attr( … ) might have been called on zero
elements. jQuery is fine with this.

The class="mw-cite-backlink" is part of a message. It should be
considered code and not be customized, but can be. Frwiki for example
localized it.
The new code still hopes to find the class, and still hopes the first
child is the text node containing the plain text up arrow. (See the
message "cite_references_link_many" which contains all this.) This code
path is kept because it is more performant.
If the class is not found, the upwards traversal done via .closest()
stops at the <li>. It then traverses down into the firstChild nodes,
hoping to find the plain text up arrow this way.
This patch makes the code work with the customizations found in frwiki.

This change makes the code much, much more robust. See, almost all HTML
relevant for this feature is encoded in messages. This allows unexpected
customizations that add additional HTML elements, change the order of DOM
elements, even remove class names and elements.
The <ol class="references"> is the only HTML snippet generated via code,
guaranteed to be there, and used as an entry point because of this.
Instead of the selector utilizing a "*" to detect references with "one"
vs. "many" backlinks, we check if a second backlink exists.
The .first() copies the browsers behavior to only respect the first anchor
in case an id="…" appears multiple times on a page.
The additional .length check further down is a missing sanity check,
currently relevant on frwiki where the expected class="mw-cite-backlink"
got localized.

This changes the a11y support on the main backlinks by introducing the usage
of title and aria-labels. The support for these elements increased a lot since
the topic was first tackled and seems the appropriate way to go.
A new message was introduced for the link that will be set when directly
coming from a clicked refrence to emphasize that the can jump back to where
he came from.

I tried to arrange the new code in a way that it is compact, but still
readable. I think it's possible to arrange it even better, but browser
tests should be added first, in my opinion.

The separate "ext.cite.a11y" module is kept for (temporary)
compatibility with cached HTML, and should be removed in about
a month.
Browser tests will be added in a separate patch.
