Pull request overview

Updates the repository’s accessibility instruction set (instructions/a11y.instructions.md) to reflect newer guidance around component-library usage, keyboard/focus behavior, forced-colors support, and reflow expectations.

Changes:

  • Refines “non‑negotiables” guidance for UI component libraries and contrast expectations.
  • Adds/adjusts keyboard/focus and aria-activedescendant guidance, plus a forced-colors/focus-style CSS example.
  • Rewords WCAG reflow guidance (320px) and expands navigation/sub-navigation guidance.
