False Positive for a11y-no-redundant-roles on List Items #8854

Describe the bug

Svelte will always report a warning on <li role="listitem">. However, this can be a false positive, as under certain conditions the role may not be redundant. According to MDN:

Note: Styling a list with list-style: none; in CSS removes the list semantics. Adding role="listitem" returns the semantics.
