kAXPlaceholderValue is only defined on 10.6 however, so we need to also define it

Comment on attachment 63669 [details] Patch LayoutTests/accessibility/placeholder.html:19 + description("This test makes sure that the placeholder is returned as the right attribute"); I would prefer "correct" instead of "right" here to make it clear it's a correct/incorrect issue and not a left/right issue. :) r=me
