Comment:

 In [changeset:"48349" 48349]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="48349"
 Accessibility: Widgets: Add theme support to make widgets output list of
 links wrapped within a `<nav>` element.

 Widgets that output list of links can now be wrapped within `<nav>`
 elements to improve semantics and accessibility.

 The `<nav>` elements are also native landmark regions, which helps
 assistive technology users to navigate through them. Themes can opt-in to
 this new behavior by declaring support for the new `html5` feature
 `navigation-widgets`.

 Props joedolson, simonjanin, audrasjb, afercia.
 Fixes #48170.
