manualconfidence: mediumseverity: minoroperable

Checks that at most one contentinfo landmark (role="contentinfo" or a non-nested <footer>) exists on the page.

Applies to. Applies whenever the page contains at least one contentinfo landmark (explicit role="contentinfo", or an implicit, non-nested <footer>).

Expectation. At most one contentinfo landmark exists on the page, mirroring landmark-no-duplicate-banner's rationale for contentinfo.
