Update to `versioned` accessibility-checker config, `06Aug2024` ruleset #17149

Open tay1orjones opened 1 month ago

tay1orjones commented 1 month ago

In https://github.com/carbon-design-system/carbon/pull/17128 accessibility-checker was updated. We can now make use of the versioned ruleset.

versioned makes sure we use a rule pack that matches the version of accessibility-checker we're currently on. New rulesets will only be brought in by updating accessibility-checker, so no more randomly failing CI checks out of the blue after a new ruleset is published on latest.

This will effectively update the ruleset to the latest, 06Aug2024. There will be violations/failures we'll need to sort through and fix and/or turn off certain rules that do not apply to storybook or the context in which we're developing the components.

The color contrast issues could be related to transitions, we should look into the fix that ibm-products explored and implemented
