[Accessibility-ia2] Finding the most recent target of the most recent activation of an in page link

[Alexander Surkov]

If you both think that new method is overkill then I'm fine to go with
relations approach. However this relation makes sense on document
accessible only and it'd be nice to introduce new method to obtain it,
otherwise AT needs to crawl hierarchy.

Next IA2 spec is going to provide a method to get enumvariant for
relation of type, that could be used to get a single relation target.

It can be named as  'scrolledTo' and be a generic propose relation,
i.e. whenever scrolling happens the relation target is changed.

Thank you.
Alex.
