Changelog

Fix: aligned with the metadata properties defined in the W3C Community Report, notably missing schema accessibility features pageNavigation, printPageNumbers synonym pageBreakMarkers.
Feature: added timeout configuration via environment variables, to override the Electron Axe runner processing logic: ACE_TIMEOUT_INITIAL (default 10000, which provides a 10s time allowance for the web window to load its document and contents) and ACE_TIMEOUT_EXTENSION (default 480000 which provides a 480s / 8mn time allowance for the Axe checkers to execute inside the loaded document).

Changelog

Support for the EPUB Accessibility 1.1 specification "Conformance and Discoverability Requirements for EPUB publications" (W3C Recommendation dated 25 May 2023)
Fixed ordering rule/check in page list.
accessibilitySummary metadata is now recommended (SHOULD), not required (MUST). The impact/severity is downgraded from serious to moderate.
conformsTo metadata is a link in the a11y spec. 1.0 (IDPF WCAG URLs), but can be string label in 1.1
metadata "refines" is not filtered out for a11y properties that are globally hoisted to the level of the publication (unlike say, media overlays duration for individual spine items, or dc:title subtitle title-type refine)
Updated Electron Axe "runner" to latest version, includes recent Chromium browser engine revision (matches Ace App GUI 1.1.6).
Deprecated Puppeteer Axe "runner" in favour of the Electron one, which runs faster and is overall a better option as it delivers an experience consistent with Ace App (GUI). The Chromium version is now the same between Ace and Ace App. This alignment of technologies eliminates incorrectly-reported colour contrast violations (this was a notable discrepancy).
Upgraded the DAISY fork of Deque Axe to latest version 4.7.2 (this brings many fixes and alignments with the latest ARIA specifications) See https://github.com/daisy/axe-core/pull/11
