 The Custom HTML Linter should show an error if an checkbox field does not
 have an associated label element.  This would be a good improvement for
 accessibility.

 To reproduce:

 1. Create a custom HTML widget
 2. Enter the following code:


 {{{
 <input type="checkbox"> Checkbox Label
 }}}


 3. No warning/error appears.
