Add assistive technology definition to prevent broken link to ARIA 1.2 #228

This document has local definitions of accessible name, accessible description, and others. However, it does not have local definition for "assistive technologies". That triggers aria-common scripts that resort to what's in WAI-ARIA 1.2. But that fails, because in WAI-ARIA 1.2 we have #dfn-assistive-technology instead of #dfn-assistive-technologies.

This adds the definition of assistive technologies back to the AccName spec. @accdc @MelSumner let me know if that works for you or there's a specific reason why we do want to point specifically to WAI-ARIA 1.2 for the assistive technology definition while we are pointing to AccName for accessible name, accessible description, and others.
