Attachment: Bug 1927977 - Ship autocorrect attribute. r=#dom-core!

The autocorrect is turned on by bug 1725806 in Nightly only.

Let's ship this attribute to turn on macOS's text substitution.

:m_kato could you consider nominating this for a release note? (Process info)

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated)
[Why is this notable]: As default of input field, text replacement of macOS is turned on.
[Affects Firefox for Android]: Yes
[Suggested wording]:
Firefox supports text replacement feature on macOS in input field as default. Web content can turn on or turn off this by HTML autocorrect attribute. Also, Firefox for Android gives a hint whether autocorrect or not for software keyboard. If software keyboard supports this feature, software keyboard suggests auto correction.

Thanks, added to the Fx136 nightly release notes, please allow 30 minutes for the site to update.
Keeping the relnote-firefox flag as ? to keep it on the radar for inclusion in the final Fx136 release notes. I will split this into two separate release notes in the final release notes - one for Desktop and another for Android.
