The checkboxes on the OPAC cart ("Basket") pages are not labelled. this makes
it hard for users of screen readers to determine their purpose. This applies to
both the brief and verbose displays.

e.g. the checkbox appears in NVDA as:

"Unlabeled; check box; not selected"

We should add distinct labels so that users can identify the purpose of the
checkboxes without visual context.

The labels should include the title of the item so that users can decide which
items to select from a list e.g. "Select [Title]" rather than "Select item".

>From what I've read it is better to use <label> with the .sr-only class rather
than using aria-label.
