handles review actions for (and supersedes) #8474
fixes #8438

Summary of the issue:

1. In IE NVDA was not reading list item numbers for ordered list if the number is specified in start attribute.
2. NVDA also does not handle the type attribute that specifies what type of numbers should be shown.

Example:

<ol start="50">
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>items<ol type="A">
  	<li>thing</li>
  	<li>another thing</li>
  </ol></li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Milk</li>
</ol>

Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:

• The start attribute is now observed for IE, fixing the first issue.
• The second issue is not considered as important, since the ordering information is announced, I.E. a number is read instead of the letter, or roman numeral. This is essentially a presentation issue, and matches what happens for unordered lists where "bullet" is read regardless of the level or bullet type.

Testing performed:

In IE I explored ordered lists, unordered lists, combinations, with and without the start and type attribute

Known issues with pull request:

None
