[csswg-drafts] [css-flexbox] clarify whether collapsed flex items influence the flex container's intrinsic main size (#5985)

dholbert has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-flexbox] clarify whether collapsed flex items influence the flex container's intrinsic main size ==
The ["flex container intrinsic main sizes" spec-text (section 9.9.1)](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-flexbox-1/#intrinsic-main-sizes) doesn't currently say anything special about excluding or special handling for collapsed flex items.  It probably should.

I think they are intended to have zero contribution to the container's main size, based on a side-comment in the ["Collapsed Items" section, section 4.4](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-flexbox-1/#collapsed-flex-item) -- that section says: "...collapsing or uncollapsing items may change the flex container’s main size", but never says precisely how.  (That section does say that these items turn into zero-main-size "struts", but that happens after the container's intrinsic sizing.)

Probably https://drafts.csswg.org/css-flexbox-1/#intrinsic-main-sizes step 1 needs s/For each flex item/For each flex item (excluding collapsed flex items)/, or something along those lines.
