CfC: Drop advisory technique H46

CALL FOR CONSENSUS  ends Friday 4th at 2:30am Boston time.

NOTE: This is an advisory technique. There may be a valid use case on 
iOS but reports are unsubstantiated. [1]

H46 doesn't really work in modern AT:

http://www.powermapper.com/tests/screen-readers/media/embed-noembed-inside/

Some WCAG failures trigger fewer problems than this sufficient technique.

Proposed Change:
Remove technique.

Worth noting that an alternative technique based on FIGCAPTION does seem 
to work well:

If you have concerns about this proposal and feel that those concerns 
result in you not being able to live with this position, please let the 
group know before the CfC deadline.
