Fantastic library, thank you very much for building it!

I noticed whilst testing with NVDA that the toasts were not being spoken by the screen reader. I believe this is because aria-live regions need to be in the DOM on page load.

This PR adds the aria-live="polite" attribute to the Toaster component which seems to resolve the issue with NVDA.

Hey! Thanks for this PR.

I'm wondering how this impacts the per-toast API:

'aria-live': 'polite',

Will this overwrite this behaviour?

Will this overwrite this behaviour?

I think so. If you wanted to keep the per-toast option, you'd probably need to render a toast container for each required politeness level and render toasts into the appropriate one as needed.
