[csswg-drafts] [css-align] align-items "Applies to" description is too restrictive

MatsPalmgren has just created a new issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-align] align-items "Applies to" description is too restrictive
 ==
It was recently changed from "block-level elements" to "flex 
containers and grid containers":
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/commit/ef903beda2146b90f42d3dbfc086b61b9f1009c1

I think this is too restrictive because `align-self` applies to 
"Absolutely-Positioned Boxes" and "Static Position of 
Absolutely-Positioned Boxes" too, not just flex/grid items:
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-align/#align-abspos

(It seems to me that `align/justify-items` could actually apply to 
everything, because they are merely place-holder values for 
substituting `align/justify-self:auto` in contexts where _those_ 
properties apply.)
