Pull Request Overview
This PR fixes a false positive in the autocomplete-valid rule by treating the values "xon" and "xoff" as valid non-WCAG-violations, similar to other state terms like "none", "false", "disabled", etc.
- Adds "xon" and "xoff" to the list of valid state terms in the rule configuration
- Updates test cases to verify these values are correctly treated as passing cases
- Adjusts test configuration and HTML fixtures to accommodate the new test cases
