Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-contain] Clarify spec text about contain:layout so that its ink-overflow effect on a scrollable element is clearer

Ah, we intended that statement ("must be treated as ink overflow") to refer to contents that actually *spilled out of the element*, aka `overflow:visible`.  The intention is just that the containing element doesn't project its contents' geometry outside of itself (and thus you don't need to care about the contents when figuring out the overflow bounds of the element).  

If the containing element is scrollable, it already traps the geometry of its contents, so nothing needs to be done.

Hm, have to think on how to rephrase.
