Re: [csswg-drafts] Rename 'line box' to 'flow line'

Agenda+ to poll the CSSWG on whether they want to make this change. I'm not sure how helpful it would be, and certainly it requires changes across almost all our specs.

Wrt to the suggested terminology, on the one hand it totally makes logical sense, on the other it emphasizes “flow” rather than “line” which is likely to be confusing to a casual reader. (What's a flow?) Line box is more immediately obvious: a box that contains a line (of text/inline content, as is frequently implied by the term).
