Spec (https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/#aria-errormessage) only states that "authors MAY use live regions for the error message element applying either an aria-live property or using one of the live region roles".
So we probably shouldn't enforce any role, unless we consider it a bad practice. In that case we should at least allow "polite" announcements, as "authors SHOULD NOT use the assertive value unless the interruption is imperative".
Replaces PR #2590, that was wrongly opened targeting the master branch.
