elementRoles: related concepts vs. implicit semantics

See original GitHub issue

Currently a <select /> element will be mapped to the listbox and combobox role. This does not match the table of *default implicit ARIA semantics: https://www.w3.org/TR/html-aria/#el-select. It should map to either one depending on size/multiple.

It seems like the map is generated from related concepts but I think those aren’t necessarily equivalent. Or the html spec is incomplete.

@eps1lon I’m going to run though all of https://www.w3.org/TR/html-aria/#el-input-file right now and make the code match the spec.
