Link to issue number:

Fixes #8235.

Summary of the issue:

NVDA reports "sub menu" for all values of aria-haspopup, which is misleading at best.

Description of user facing changes

In Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, NVDA now reports when a control opens a dialog, grid, list or tree if the author has specified this using aria-haspopup.

Description of development approach

1. Created new states for HASPOPUP_DIALOG, GRID, LIST and TREE. The general HASPOPUP state is still used for menus.
2. Mapped the ARIA string values to states.
3. Modified both the IA2Web NVDAObject and the Gecko_ia2 vbuf to expose these new states based on the haspopup object attribute.

Testing strategy:

Tested with the test case in #8235. The correct message - "opens dialog", etc. - is reported when tabbing in focus mode, tabbing in browse mode, moving by line in browse mode and quick navigating in browse mode.

Known issues with pull request:
