IAccessible::get_accSelection should work with all objects

Project Member Reported by nek...@chromium.org, Sep 7 2017

Issue description

IAccessible::get_accSelection should return the selected children of the object it's called on. Currently it's only implemented for list boxes.
Screen readers would like to have the ability to determine, e.g. which cells in a table row, or which rows in a table, have the aria-selected attribute set.
We already support IAccessibleTable and IAccessibleCell 
methods that return the selected cells, but we should support this for completeness.
