Comment:

 In [changeset:"45075" 45075]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="45075"
 Accessibility: Make sure the Site Health layout tables are correctly
 linearized.

 Adds `role="presentation"` to the `<table>` elements used in the Site
 Health reports.

 Ideally, HTML tables should be used for tabular data. When tables are used
 for layout purposes, it's important to remove any native semantics so that
 assistive technologies can correctly announce the table content in a
 linearized fashion.

 Props chetan200891.
 Fixes #46725.
