[CSSWG][css-grid-2] Updated WD of CSS Grid L2

The CSS WG has published an updated Working Draft of the CSS Grid Layout Module Level 2:

    https://www.w3.org/TR/css-grid-2/

This draft contains the “subgrid” feature that was cut from the Level 1 CR last year,
along with a proposed feature for copying gutter widths in one axis from the justified
gutters of the other axis. The main goal of this level is to have a completed spec for
subgrids as soon as possible; so while we might cull some other minor features from
the list of requests, more complex feature requests will be deferred to Level 3.

Changes from the last draft consist mainly of

   * Dropping the dual-axis subgrid proposal in favor of the per-axis one
     as originally described in the 2015 L1 draft.

   * Switching the justified gutters syntax from using <number> to 'ar' units.

We'll be working through individual issues filed against these features going forward,
such as control over gaps https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2285 and
interaction of named lines https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2622 etc.

Please review the draft, and send any comments to the CSSWG mailing list,
<www-style@w3.org>, prefixed with [css-grid-2] (as I did on this message) or
(preferably) file them in the GitHub repository at
   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues

For the CSS WG,
