Re: [svg-aam] SVG-AAM should address which elements should map to ARIA `generic` role (#21)

> Or is the conformance checker being needlessly pedantic?

I'd say in this instance the conformance checker is simply wrong. While [svg-aam 5.1.2](https://w3c.github.io/svg-aam/#include_elements) is a bit odd, it specifically mentions aria-label. In addition, svg-aam also allows any role on `svg` and aria-label is allowed on the image/img role. (More importantly, the given markup also works in real life.)
