agenda+ new definition of Programmatically Available

This came up in Kim's and my review of Eric's editorial comments – we 
don't have a definition for programmatically available. ATAG has a 
definition for programmatically determined. We modified that one, here 
it is:

programmatically available

Information that is encoded in a way that allows different software, 
including assistive technologies, to extract and present the information 
in different modalities. This means making use of platform accessibility 
services, APIs, and, in some cases, document object models (DOM). For 
web-based user interfaces, this means ensuring that the user agent can 
pass on the information (e.g., through the use of ARIA).
