[css3-multicol] Mention somewhere that 'inherit' is a valid keyword

A minor issue for the next update of the spec: 

Nowhere in the spec does it say that the properties accept 'inherit' as 
a value, but we know they do. A few lines on how to read the grammar 
might be useful to avoid mistakes. E.g., something like the following 
(adapted from section 2 of Backgrounds and Borders[1]).

    Values

    This specification follows the CSS property definition
    conventions[2] from [CSS21].

    <color>, <integer> and <length> are defined in CSS Level 2
    Revision 1 [CSS21].

    All properties defined in this specification also accept the
    inherit[3] keyword as their value, but for readability it has not
    been listed explicitly.
