#34267: #a11y-headings - the FTP credentials screen and modal headings

-------------------------------+-----------------
 The FTP credential screen and modal dialog display (conditionally) some
 headings:
 {{{
 'Connection Information' <-- h3
 'Authentication Keys'    <-- h4
 'Connection Type'        <-- h4
 }}}

 - when displayed in the Updates screen they're inside an iframe, which
 technically is a separate document, so the first heading should be a H1
 but this wouldn't make much sense for the overall headings hierarchy
 - when displayed in the modal dialog, the first heading should be a H1
 because for assistive technologies the dialog content is the only
 available content on the screen (it has an ARIA role=dialog and keyboard
 navigation is constrained within the modal)

 About the second and third headings, I'd propose to change them in
 fieldset legends. That seems the most semantic markup to me.

 Not sure what to do with the first heading, would appreciate some
 feedback. Any thoughts more than welcome.
