Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-overflow-3] Define how child margin-boxes contributes to scrollable overflow (ISSUE 6) (#3653)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `margins and scrollable overflow`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: for flex and grid, margins contribute to overflow`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;fantasai> Topic: margins and scrollable overflow<br>
&lt;fantasai> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3653<br>
&lt;fantasai> fantasai: ....<br>
&lt;fantasai> florian: For all things where we don't have a legacy constraint, I'm in favor of including margins, and this is one of them<br>
&lt;florian> fantasai: for blocks we cannot just include the margins, because compat, but for grid and flex we don't have this problem<br>
&lt;florian> fantasai: so when you put overflow on things, and have margins, authors expect them to show up<br>
&lt;fantasai> [fantasai was explaining why spacing specified by the author should be included in scrollable overflow -- it's used for spacing, and needs to provide that spacing between item and bottom/right edges of scroll container]<br>
&lt;fantasai> [ but have compat issues with block containers, would create too many unexpected scrollbars; so adapting for grid flexbox only ]<br>
&lt;florian> proposed resolution: for flex and grid, margins contribute to overflow<br>
&lt;florian> RESOLVED: for flex and grid, margins contribute to overflow<br>
