Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid] Percentages and intrinsic size

I don't have a overwhelming preference. On the one hand, having 
something that looks broken will help authors know they should rethink
 their code. On the other hand, I can see this coming up in real world
 usecases, and having Grid return a broken result is a bad idea. It 
would be better for it to resolve in some kind of useable way. 

Maybe we want the % track to resolve to zero if it's empty. Basically 
— have it always act like it's `auto`.

Maybe we want the % track to act like it's `minmax( backcomputethingy,
 auto)` — where it acts like auto if the content is making it grow 
beyond the competed size. But if there's not that much content / is no
 content, then it acts like the examples where the size is computed 
based on the other sizes. Basically giving us both of these, depending
 on whether or not there is content.
