                    from AX search queries
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified

Per WAI-ARIA authoring best practices, radiobuttons should always be wrapped in a `role="radiogroup"` container.

https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices-1.2/#wai-aria-roles-states-and-properties-16

> “The radio buttons are contained in or owned by an element with role radiogroup.”

However, many real-world documents don't do this, instead forming "ad-hoc" radiogroups by connecting individual radiobuttons by `name` attribute (which is allowed by HTML):

<form>
<input type="radio" name="color” value="red">Red</br>
<input type="radio" name="color” value="blue">Blue</br>
</form>

<form>
<input type="radio" name="size” value="small">Small</br>
<input type="radio" name="size” value="large">Large</br>
</form>

When searching by AXRadioGroupSearchKey, WebKit currently cannot find these ad-hoc radiogroups. With this bug, we should make WebKit able to find them.
