Video demonstration

When dictating text into a WKWebView displaying a contenteditable element, the inserted text is duplicated if there are dictation alternatives.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Create a test app with a WKWebView, call `webView.loadHTMLString("<body contenteditable=\"true\"></body>", baseURL:nil)`.
2. Run test app, choose Edit > Start Dictation
3. Say "Foo" then "Bar" 
4. End dictation
==> Dictation inserts "Food barFood bar"

If you speak a phrase clearly and dictation does not have alternative options, such as "Hello there", this duplication does not occur.

Interestingly, this bug does not occur in Safari itself, only when using a WKWebView directly.
