Sectioning root was removed from HTML here: whatwg/html#7829
So this PR updates CORE-AAM to match the authors guidance here: https://w3c.github.io/html-aria/#el-header
And we separately discussed that the "sectioning root" check was unnecessary here: #375 (comment)

This doesn't close the issue #375 because scoped is still not defined.

LGTM... I don't think this requires a change in WebCore Accessibility, so I don't believe a WebKit bug tracker is required. If we later discover that I was wrong, we can track it then.

Previous to this CL, <aside> was always mapped to a landmark role.
Now, <aside> to landmark role (role=complementary) if:

1) Scoped to main or body elements, or
2) Given accessible name if scoped to sectioning content elements

Additionally, the "sectioning root" concept was removed from html,
therefore <header> and <footer> will only be mapped to a non
landmark role if inside a sectioning content element (main,
aside, navigation, section, article).
See CORE-AAM update: w3c/html-aam#456

Finally, the mapping originally only respected sectioning content
elements according to their html tag, but now they respect the
equivalent ARIA roles as well.
