Include non-SEO best practices in the best practices category as well

See original GitHub issue

When a document is being “Blocked from indexing” as a result of X-Robots-Tag or <meta name="robots"> I believe requiring a canonical link is redundant.

Thanks @patrickhulce Yes, I’m referring to cases where you don’t want a document indexed by search engines, but still conform to some of the best practices within the SEO category, such as “Document uses legible font sizes” or “Links have descriptive text” (which I personally feel belongs to the accessibility category just as much). So ignoring the SEO category is not a great advice, developers may expect some of the requirements of an indexable document not to apply to a “noindex” document.
