Description
### Problem
Hardcoding accels in the panel when indicators are optional isn't great
### Proposal
As discussed in https://github.com/elementary/wingpanel/pull/699#issuecomment-5443772037 we should have an API so indicators can register accels
### Prior Art (Optional)
_No response_
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the discussion in pull request #699, especially the linked issue comment, then trace the keygrabber and indicator paths in Wingpanel. Identify where the panel currently hardcodes accelerators and how optional indicators are loaded. Done means indicators can register their accelerators through a documented API without panel-specific hardcoding.
