Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text] Reference to HTTP Content-Language header for language declaration (#5031)

fwiw, reasons HTTP language declarations are problematic include:
- they represent metadata rather than language-processing language
- they may have multiple language value arguments, which is not appropriate for applying language for language-processing, and which currently breaks language declarations for browsers
- HTTP declarations don't work unless the resource is served by a server
- it suggests to authors that it may be ok to use the Content-Language meta element, which is deprecated in HTML and doesn't actually work on all browsers
