Address title attribute and name prohibited elements

[scottaohara]

This PR does a few things:

• Revises naming computation section to
  • identify elements which are name prohibited, reducing these items accName algorithm to only accept names from aria-label/aria-labelledby. Title specifically called out to contribute to description, not name. (see: https://github.com/w3c/html-aam/issues/552) - closes https://github.com/w3c/html-aam/issues/506
  • revise labelling of a and area element naming, as their href-less versions are name prohibited
  • Fix 'Sectioning and Grouping Elements' to just "Sectioning Elements' (the concept of grouping elements was removed. More changes need to happen here.
  • Removes Text-level elements naming computation section (these largely all became part of the prohibited naming section)
  • Adds new "elements which cannot be named" section (a couple of these were part of the text-level elements section, so they needed a place to go, as simply folding them into name prohibited didn't make sense, to me)
• addresses marking role=listitem as name prohibited - closes #1712
• addresses the desire to make sure the title attribute does not produce redundant information (e.g., <div title=foo>foo</div> title should not return a desc. Nor should it for <button title=foo aria-label=foo>...</button> - as the title matches the content of the div, and the accName of the button)

I currently don't have header and footer listed in this update - because I really would rather not put them into the name prohibited category when they aren't banner/contentinfo landmarks, and would really just hope we can get https://github.com/w3c/aria/pull/1931 and updating the non-landmark header and footer elements to the new proposed roles.
