fix(cdk/table): set explicit role on all cells (#29987)

We were omitting `role="cell"` on native `td` elements, because the browser should be setting it implicitly, but based on the discussion in #29784, it seems like Safari doesn't do it. These changes switch to always setting the `role`.

Fixes #29784.
