Description

Describe the change

As per comments in w3c/aria-practices#3211, currently only roles where an accessible name is required have an Accessible Name Required row, with a value pair set to "True".

Roles where accessible name is not required do not have a matching row. Users are left to understand that a role without this value pair have an inferred row of "false".

For those who are not intimately familiar with such a convention, I believe each role's characteristics table should contain an Accessible Name Required row, with either a true/false or less binary value.
