Add landmarks to indicate major page areas #33

Description

@carrythebanner

Landmarks are used by assistive tech to identify major page elements. This helps people easily location common items like navigation, search, and the main page content.

  • Put top matter which appears on every page in header; inside of that, use:
    • nav for navigation
    • role="search" on the search control's parent container, including the label etc. (not directly on the input element)
  • Primary content in main
  • Version info in footer

Additionally, all content should be within a landmark — if there's content outside of landmarks, then someone navigating by landmarks could miss it.
