/**
* Add complementary features to a bar chart created with morris.js for improved accessibility :
* keyboard navigation support and accessible labels and widget roles.
* @param {Morris.Bar} morrisBar a bar chart created with Morris.Bar()
* @param {String} title the accessible title to add to the bar chart
* @param {Function} barLabelGenerator the eventual function providing an accessible label for each bar. The function must accept one parameter (the data item related to the bar) and return a String.
* @param {String} barRole the eventual ARIA role to assign to each bar element
* @param {Function} clickHandler an eventual click event handler function defined on the chart and to be applied when pressing "Enter" on a focused bar
