Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-multicol] Improve column-fill example 26 and example 27 (#3700)

Okay. I read the change... but I do not think this makes significant difference with regards to how `orphans` and `widows` can have an effect on line boxes and content distribution among columns.

I have replaced `height: auto` with `height: 3.42em` in these 4 tests:

[Example 26 without orphans: 1](http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/CSS3Multi-Columns/column-fill-balance-Example-26-without-orphans1.html)
[Example 26 without widows: 1](http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/CSS3Multi-Columns/column-fill-balance-Example-26-without-widows1.html)
[Example 26 without orphans: 1 and without widows: 1](http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/CSS3Multi-Columns/column-fill-balance-Example-26-without-orphans1-without-widows1.html)
[Column-fill: balance Example 26 with 2 line boxes](http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/CSS3Multi-Columns/column-fill-balance-Example-26-with-2-line-boxes.html)

and I still believe Chromium 73+ (and presumably Opera 12.16) handle the first 3 tests correctly, precisely and as expected.

Right now, this statement

> If columns are balanced, user agents should try to minimize variations in column height, **while honoring** forced breaks, **widows and orphans**, and other properties that may affect column heights.

has no examples and no tests.
