Providing Accessible Names Practice: Change heading levels to make page TOC more informative #2324

<Jem> https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/pull/2324

<Jem> seth: that is respec generator, not jekill for preview.

<Jem> seth: I will look into PR preview error.

<Jem> mck: This PR proposes removing the headings associated with items 4 and 5 to bump up their subsections and expose them in the page TOC.

<Jem> https://www.w3.org/WAI/aria/apg/practices/names-and-descriptions/

<Jem> ...both Accessible Names Accessible Descriptions are large section. It is difficult for users to know what is on the page with so many subsections tucked away under them. This PR proposes removing the headings associated with items 4 and 5 to bump up their subsections and expose them in the page TOC.

<Jem> ... I bumped up the headling levels from h4 to h3.

<Jem> ... I would like to work on edtioral section before the launch.

<Jem> ... I am not sure about Shawn's availability for the changed push.

<Jem> seth: which version we should look at? non paypal version?

<Jem> jon: Matt, in which repo do we want to put the jump to code? currently it is just script, not source code repo.

<Jem> mck: I am not sure what the best aveneu for now but I prefer jump to to be part of the repo.

<Jem> jon; we can talk about where to/how to host that. it is branded as paypal, not actually paypal code.

<Jem> seth: currently jumpto is only on APG examples but is it eventually for every page?
