role="presentation" not supported on SVG element

[jhensley]

Product: axe-core

Expectation: Allow role="presentation" on <svg> elements

Actual: role="presentation" not seen as a valid role on <svg> elements

Motivation: Based on the WAI specs, any role should be valid on an <svg> element

<svg role="presentation" alt="foo"></svg>
axe-core version: 2.3.0

Thanks for the issue. Our code is out-of-date with the latest version of the ARIA in HTML spec. Back when we first took from it SVG was only allowed application, document, and img. The latest spec allows all roles

Makes sense, I only discovered it when upgrading to axe-core 4.3.0; guessing some other check (perhaps this: #2989) is picking it up or something.

I believe this should be closed per #3124.
