Announce a selectable list as M3's list box of options

Plan step 12, containment.md C-03. `selected` was colour alone on a
`listitem`, which cannot carry a selected state at all. `<x-list
selectable>` (or `selection="single|multi"`) now makes the container a
`role="listbox"` and each item an `option` with `aria-selected`; a plain
list keeps `role="list"` and marks a selected item `aria-current`. A
selected option draws a trailing check as M3's second cue, which
`icon-right` replaces. The item reads its list's mode with `@aware`.

It is a `role="list"`; for keyboard walking between rows, `j`/`k` or arrows, the application

A plain list is a `role="list"` of `listitem`s. `selectable` (or `selection="single"` /
`selection="multi"`) makes it the list a person chooses from: M3 maps single- and
multi-select lists on the web to a **list box** of **options** with a selected state
(docs/reference/m3/components-actions-communication-containment.md § Lists → Accessibility),
so the container becomes `role="listbox"` (`aria-multiselectable` when multi) and each item
an `option` that announces `aria-selected`. A selected option also draws a trailing check, so
selection is never colour alone; give the items a leading checkbox or radio instead and pass
`icon-right` to keep the check off.
