header/footer should only map to banner/contentinfo when not child of sectioning content or main

Project Member Reported by faulkner...@gmail.com, Mar 2 2016

Issue description

Version: 48.0.2564.116 m
OS: win10

Currently in Chrome, <header> and <footer> are exposed as banner/contentinfo landmark roles unless contained with <section> or <article> elements, we think this is too broad and these roles should only exposed if not a child of any sectioning content or main elements

the acc API mappings for the elements reflect this stricter definition:
