Version 2302.2026.06.16

Added Shadow DOM support so Visual ARIA markers work inside web components. All checks now penetrate open shadow roots, slotted content is correctly traced back to its shadow tree ancestors, and visual CSS indicators are injected per-feature in sync with each checkbox toggle.
