Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-display-3] Clarify whether display: contents applies to ::before and ::after

As @Loirooriol points out, it definitely has an observable effect, and is straightforward to define.  Basically, the following two bits of markup:

```css
<div><span>Foo</span>Bar</div>
```
and
```css
<div>Bar</div>
<style>div::before { content: "Foo"; }</style>
```

...should be completely indistinguishable as far as CSS is concerned.  There is no reason for the two to diverge in any way.

*That said*, I also wouldn't be too sad if we defined that it didn't work.  It's just inconsistent and breaks a constant that has nicely applied to ::before and ::after previously.
