fix: color contrast misc (#639) Closes #607, #556

* fix(color-contrast): incl. elements w/ line breaks

Closes #607
Closes #556

* fix(color-contrast): allow disabled label children

Closes #596

* fix: adjust color algorithm for inline elements

Elements spanning multiple lines now pass coordinates from their first box/rectangle to document.elementsFromPoint for gathering an element stack.

* fix: handle contrast of multiline inline el's

* test: ignore Phantom's LIES about color contrast

* test: remove failing test

TODO: address in #621

* chore: fix formatting issue
